I’m a Los Angeles-based writer, editor, and dramaturg.

My plays have been produced and developed at Theatre 4the People (NYC), Actors Studio West (Los Angeles), The Theatre Upstairs (Phoenix), Trike Children’s Theatre, Back Space, and Franklin College (Indianapolis). As a dramaturg, I’ve worked with TheatreSquared, Arkansas New Play Festival, Arkansas Staged, and as a script consultant for both stage and screenplays in development. I’ve taught playwriting workshops at New York Film Academy and the University of Arkansas, and worked as a script writer at a children’s media company. I am currently on the board of NYC theatre company Theatre 4the People, where I was an artist in residence in 2022.  

When I’m not writing plays, I am editing books (and/or writing about antique jewelry). I began my editing career at River Styx Literary Journal and Boulevard Magazine before transitioning into freelance work. I’m primarily focused on developmental editing for fiction and scripted work, but am also experienced in non-fiction and academic writing.

I have an MFA in playwriting from the University of Arkansas, a BA in Creative Writing from Webster University, and am currently a student at The Idiot in Los Angeles, CA.
