I'm a multihyphenate cultural worker with six years of experience, currently serving as the New Work Manager at Company One Theater, a teaching assistant at Harvard University, and freelance in supporting artists and organizations in new work. My expertise encompasses new play development, arts journalism, creative project & program management, and producing theatrical events. I take pride in having contributed to the development of three world premiere plays and two Rolling World Premiere productions, curated accessible virtual masterclasses with esteemed artists, and being an alum of four nationally recognized arts and culture cohorts. In my free time, I enjoy exploring nature, baking gluten-free treats, and following the latest Dimension 20 campaign.
