About Me
I tell stories that live somewhere between comedy and heartbreak, where people are trying (and often failing) to connect. My work leans into identity, absurdity, and the inevitable liability of being human.
As both a writer and actor, I’m obsessed with the rhythms of dialogue and the strange beauty of contradiction, the people who want to be seen but hide, who love deeply but mess it up spectacularly. Below are a few snippets of completed works and works in progress.
