Tracing the small ceremonies that shape us, the histories that haunt us, and the transformations that carry us forward.

Theatre shaped by silence, memory, and radical hope.
I create plays that explore memory, identity, and the quiet, sacred rituals of everyday life. Through layered storytelling, porous characters, and a deep attention to silence, I invite audiences to see the beauty, fracture, and resilience at the core of being human.
THE THREAD
A play about what we bury—and what won’t stay buried.
When a missing girl returns to her small town—wordless, changed, and trailed by a red thread—three people must confront what they chose not to see: the friend who walked away, the officer who dismissed her warnings, and the town that let her vanish. As memory resurfaces and silence begins to hum, the characters descend into the space beneath forgetting—a place where grief is alive, and the past pulls back.
THE THREAD is a haunting, lyrical play about complicity, collective memory, and the cost of looking away.

NORTHBOUND GRACE
Sometimes, the most sacred confessions happen between stops.
A cloistered nun and a grieving stranger share a train car—and an unexpected conversation—on a quiet Metra line heading north. As the train moves steadily through winter light, their guarded silences unravel into confession, memory, and fragile connection.
With the subtle presence of a watchful conductor and a haunting figure from the past, NORTHBOUND GRACE explores the sacredness of small encounters, the weight of what we carry, and the quiet grace that can emerge between stations.

PSALMS & SADDLES
Faith in boots, grace in motion, God in the ordinary.
Set in the sun-bleached highways of 1970s America, PSALMS & SADDLES follows Jesse—a quiet drifter with a deep understanding of love, justice, and human dignity. He’s not a prophet or a miracle worker, but his presence changes lives.
As Jesse travels west, he's joined by a group of outcasts—a former nun, a runaway teen, a migrant worker, a Vegas performer, and others—each drawn into his quiet rebellion. Together, they journey through diners, picket lines, and desert motels, reenacting a modern-day Stations of the Cross.
Rooted in radical hospitality and everyday grace, PSALMS & SADDLES is a poetic road play about tenderness as resistance, faith without spectacle, and the sacred in the ordinary.

BENEDICTION CURVE
Telemetry from the Silence
In the fragile dawn of deep space travel, a crew of cartographers and scientists aboard the vessel Ariadne is dispatched to chart a remote and unmeasured sector of the universe. Their mission is simple: observe, record, map. But what begins as an act of discovery slowly distorts into something more unsettling. The stars behave with unnatural precision. A pattern emerges where none should exist.
As cosmic data grows too perfect, too meaningful, the team begins to question what they’re truly seeing—and whether some knowledge is meant to remain unmeasured. Grief from Earth bleeds into the void. Communication frays. And something aboard may no longer be alive. Or never was.
BENEDICTION CURVE is a quiet, lo-fi odyssey through space and perception—a meditation on the terror of precision, the ache of memory, and the unbearable beauty of a universe that might be watching back.
