PRODUCING
Co-founder & Vice-president
FTC is a nonprofit NYC-based collective that builds dynamic, joyful, and holistic theatrical experiences from the objects, spaces, viewpoints, contributions, and people it can gather from any and everywhere.
I spearheaded the creation of our four organizational branches: Take Root (donation-based education), Unearth (readings and workshops), Blossom (concerts and live experiences), and Harvest (fully-produced productions). I primarily work in our development and production branches, focusing on budgeting, contract creation, hiring, venue negotiating, maintaining our professional network, and artistic producing, as well as managing the marketing, branding, social media, content planning, and graphic design for the company.

Set in an immersive in the round theater space at The New Ohio recreating a “peasant feast” in a 1990s SoHo apartment, we focused on creating a passionate actor-to-audience authenticity, dynamic staging and choreography, and a celebratory atmosphere within this complex, melancholic story.

Spring Awakening
New Work Series with New York Theatre Barn
The 16th season of New York Theatre Barn's award-winning New Works Series launched at the Robert Moss Theatre at Playwrights Horizons Downtown. The live and in-person presentation featured excerpts from the new musicals Coming Soon: A New Rock Musical and Saint Sebastian, as well as a conversation with the writers moderated by Artistic Director Joe Barros.
The Musical Multiverse
A hilarious, unpredictable performance series where two fan-favorite musicals are mashed together into brand new parody shows, featuring an original script and inventive musical arrangements.
Their most recent endeavor was "Jenna Todd: The Demon Waitress of Lulu’s". Jenna, a struggling pie shop owner, accepts the help of a mysterious new barber in town, who promises – razor across his heart – that her under-baked business will rise. The barber in question, one Sweeney Todd, will do anything for Jenna – what with her being his long-lost daughter!
