I am a NYC-based set and costume designer interested in adventurous work that illuminates new perspectives on iconic pieces, imaginative work that is inherently theatrical, and by plays that seem “unproduceable” because they embrace the impossible. Finding creative solutions to “impossible” moments is part of the magic of design that excites me.

I believe that design is all about clarity of storytelling. Specific choices about the world and characters create context for the story and when done effectively help the audience comprehend and know what to focus on.  

My process is one of distillation - taking the story, characters, and dramaturgical, socio-political, and ideological ramifications the script reveals and finding the visual poetic essence that encapsulates  the high-level esoteric ideas and themes and translates that essence into intelligible choices.

I am drawn to the more expressionistic modes of storytelling inherent to theater and strive with each design to find innovative visual storytelling solutions that activate the audience's imagination because when activated they become directly involved in the story.

“When it comes to stagecraft and striking an artistic conversation with the audience, the production is groundbreaking. The techniques employed merge the elements of popular culture, consumerism, and materialism seamlessly.”
