Photography

I recently had the honor working with
photographer Brian James
​on a powerful photo series he's creating, entitled 

The Divided States of America


​The series photographically alludes to major issues our country is currently grappling with.  I find Brian's work particularly poignant because these issues are so often
difficult to encompass in words -
yet somehow their essence is powerfully summed up
in these images.
​
For a sneak-peak,
here are two photos from the shoot that I got my hands on
just in time for the November elections.

Honored and excited to join the ranks of the

Pacific Conservatory Theatre


and the Pacific Conservatory of the Performing Arts

as their newest 
Resident Artist and Faculty Member.


Picture
Picture

PCPA is a truly rare organization
and the embodiment of the mentor/apprentice model.
 
The Resident Artists serve as Faculty for the Conservatory during the day, and then they act along side their students (who serve as as understudies, ensemble members, and in supporting roles) in the professional productions.


I will be teaching Shakespeare for the Conservatory
and serving as a Resident Artist in the Company for the Professional Theatre.
(including a fabulous Summer Season of outdoor theatre in beautiful Solvang, CA)

This "unicorn*" opportunity allows me to utilize all my theatrical passions: 
act, teach, sing, dance, direct, mentor, dramaturg

And it's in the Central Coast of California.  In wine country.  Close to the Ocean.
So.  Come visit.

*unicorn: a magical creature that I previously didn't believe existed
