I've long been enamored by texture, the vastness of negative space, and the immediacy of weight.
After I graduated from Hamline University with a BA in Theatre Arts and Digital Media Arts, I spent a few years in the luscious dance and theatre scene of the Twin Cities in Minnesota. I co-founded Spaceheater with Jon Dahl, and we presented work in squash courts, studio showings/labs, as hired guest artists, and produced our first evening length work, "LIVING ROOM", in a vacant downtown Minneapolis storefront. Another highlight of my stint in the Twin Cities is performing and studying with Live Action Set in "Unset," an improv dance process that invites an audience member to be the protagonist of the movement-piece we create with them, emceed by Jeff Wirth (Interactive PlayLab). I also began working with TigerLion Arts on Nature, and The Coldharts on The Unrepentant Necrophile. Both of these productions have become ongoing touring productions.

Since moving to New York in 2017, I've produced my own solo show, "Saint Ex," both in the Minnesota Fringe Festival, and at Torn Page in Chelsea, co-founded/produced the So-fi Festival for solo, low-fi performing artists, danced with Open Dance Ensemble, studied with JoAnna Mendl Shaw, and have continued touring with Nature and The Unrepentant Necrophile. I currently play drums in Baby Midnight and spearhead a writing group, Freight Mates, contact for details!
