“My Inspired World”: A film by Jack Morgan Productions.
This short film has a great message, very poignant to Los Angeles and the ongoing homelessness crisis. Since it’s release, it even picked up some well deserved awards on the festival circuit. I’m so thankful for the opportunity to work with such a talented team of film makers, and can’t wait to see what they do next!

NICAEA. A play. A journey. A winner of HWFF17 Producers Encore Award.
Recently, I had the opportunity to work with a wonderful group of people in the play "NICAEA" (written and directed by Tricia Aurand), a historical drama based on the political intrigue of the early church.
I learned that wearing many hats is essential for the format of Fringe. Small casts, quick turnarounds, and late nights are a sure bet. It was definitely a challenge, one that I'm immensely grateful to have been a part of.
