A native of Loudoun County, I graduated from Loudoun Valley High School and attended a small, private college in Asheville, North Carolina. At Warren Wilson College, I was a member of the Theatre Crew. Well-educated in the art of sewing, I was primarily based in the Costume Shop and assisted with make-up duties on show nights. In my fourth year, I became the Crew Boss and tasked with overseeing the crew. In addition to my duties in the Costume Shop, I managed shows and houses, and organizing tech crews, house crews, actors as well as overseeing reservations. Although most of my time at Warren Wilson College was spent behind the scenes, I have appeared in several musical productions as a singer. I continue to sing with area chorales, as well as in church.

In addition to singing, I continue to work on theatrical productions. Most recently acting as the Costume Designer/Wardrobe Mistress for the Spring Musicals at Farmwell Station Middle School where I currently teach. My other projects have included the direction and organization of Christmas pageants as well as working with organizers to create costumes for themed Vacation Bible Schools.

I look forward to meeting the parents and students who will be participating in The Growing Stage’s program this summer.
