BIO:
Hello! I am passionate about storytelling and constantly intrigued as to how I can evolve my practice, in a response to the fluidity of our political and social landscape. Through a strong connection with movement, and music inspired by composition and sound design, I seeks to create a visceral and intricate storytelling experience, weaving in and out of the realms of fantasy, magic and the unusual. I champion authentic queer narratives on stage and believes the normalization of stories outside the gender binary continue to be crucial in creating equality within the arts community and society at large.
