Artist Statement
I am a graduate of the University of Southern Indiana, where I received a Bachelor of Science in Theatre Arts. I have been involved in the theatre world for as long as I can remember, but throughout my college experience I have emphasized my focus on scenic design and prop building. Amazingly, I was able to have the opportunity of set designing two shows at USI. Which led me to compete and receive a Honorable Mention in Scenic Design at the KCACTF Region III 2020 Festival. Beyond graduation, I was invited back to design another project, which I eagerly accepted.
I am now a Twin Cities based scenic and props designer who holds a Master’s degree in Scenic & Props Design, from the Unoversity of Minnesota. I am passionate about designing theatrical frames that allow the story to shine through. I also have a particular love for prop making and crafting specialty pieces. I also spend time working as a scenic painter for select shows.
These opportunities I have been given have opened my eyes to a passion that I try every day to cultivate. My goal is to be collaborative and take every chance I have to learn from those around me.
