| Location | Brooklyn, NY, United States |
| Introduction | I'm a Brooklyn native who's been around the NY performing arts scene since the 90s, variously as an actor, director, stage manager, lighting technician, writer, stand-up comic and bellydancer. Somehow I'll find a way to roll all that together into a career that does not involve computer programming..... Additionally, I volunteer with Learning Leaders as a grade-school tutor in advanced reading, study GoJu Ryu Karate and teach small-craft sailing through my sailing club, TASCA. I also maintain blogs for my co-op's online community and for my dance and stand-up performances. And I have three fabulous cats. |
