About me

Industry Arts
Occupation Performing Artist
Location Burlington, VT, United States
Introduction When Don Wright gave me the opportunity to begin the Saturday Drama Club at 333, I was elated. The lightning bolts of creative energy bursting from a kid's smile always charge me with joy to continue doing the hard work of being an artist, mother, mentor and community builder. I love collaborating with kids to make spontaneous works of art with intentions of exploration, inquiry, connectivity and fun (of course). I believe that when we are organizing around each other, working together, merging ideas and converging our energies that wild inspirations are inevitable!
