I performed in Theatre from a young age beginning as a featured dancer in the ensemble and playing lead roles in high school and college. Theatre was my passion and I knew I wanted to become a Theatre educator since the 8th grade. While double majoring in Theatre performance (concentrations in acting, directing, and dance) and Theatre/Speech education I worked jobs as a freelance choreographer and director. Upon graduation I moved to California working as a Theatre educator, stage manager and scenic painter in Los Angeles. Since moving back to Fargo in 2007 I have directed at Shanley High School, choreographed at South high School, and taught drama classes for Fargo Public School eventually settling at Davies High School when it opened in 2011 as theTheatre teacher and program director. I began directing for Summer Arts Intensive in 2021 and have enjoyed every minute of those five years. Fun fact about me is that I am also an avid NFL fan, specifically the Green Bay Packers – Go Pack Go!
