More about me!
As a dual psychology and stage management graduate, I bring a unique perspective of empathy to my stage management. Yes, I can call breaks, complete paperwork, and take blocking, but more than that, I have an uncanny ability to prioritize the needs of people, budgets, safety, and more. Through effortless juggling in my head, my decisions facilitate a healthy process. The best art is made when we feel safe enough to challenge ourselves, and more than anything else, it's my calling to create and maintain that atmosphere as a stage manager.
RESUMES
I have like 400 resumes! What side of me do you want to learn more about? THESIS
As I was a part of the Honors College during my undergrad, I wrote a massive thesis about stress management in theater! It's a lot of text, but take a gander for a sample of my academic writing or if you have an interest in stress-managing your own career. *Hint: skip to the appendices for a quick list of coping strategies! MUSIC
In addition to my music playing, I dabble in music arrangement as well! Click to listen to a full orchestral arrangement of a Scottish folk song I put together to honor the PanAm Flight 103 disaster - each instrument's part in this arrangement corresponds to one of the 35 Syracuse University students lost in the crash.
