hey

I hope to not know you, to meet you someday soon, to be something new for you. 

I enjoy creating and performing art --

specifically when a variety of forms, spaces and mediums are utilized to enhance one's sense of beauty and limitlessness. Or a group's indeterminable nature. Whichever helps us feel most alive together. 

 

My intention is to cultivate a community of artists who feel called to change this industry and heal in the process of dismantling it.  

 

I'm also stepping back and shutting up, as there is a lot of unpacking and unlearning occurring within my body, mind and soul. 

 

Some plays I have created are called Hooters Play, Boyband, Belly, Dead Tripping and RAD!

Since 2019, I have been in collaboration with the ever-evolving, Brooklyn-based, performance artist collective:

IDontWannaSeeThat. 
We make the craziest sh*t.

Recently, I performed in Judgment Day, directed by Richard Jones at the 

Park Avenue Armory, as well as a short film directed by Olivia Wilde and a horror film titled Shrine, produced by Sam Raimi. Upcoming: WeCrashed on AppleTV

Bailey and Nadezhda were down to rehearse on my roof and that meant the world to me.
