My directing is rooted in the idea of sonder — "the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own." At its core, sonder reminds us to step outside ourselves and recognize the same depth in others that we carry within ourselves.

I am drawn to stories that illuminate the lives of people often overlooked, finding the extraordinary within the ordinary. Whether I’m working on revivals, adaptations, or new plays, I approach the rehearsal room as a collaborative space where actors, designers, and writers are empowered to take creative risks, bring their full selves, and shape the story together.

​

I am committed to telling bold, inclusive stories that challenge assumptions and expand whose voices are seen onstage. My work is guided by patience, curiosity, and a belief that theatre can transform communities by fostering empathy and understanding. I aim to create productions that leave audiences feeling seen, challenged, and connected — a theatre that reflects the richness of the world we share while daring to imagine what it could be.
