My journey as a playwright began when I was 19. I joined the Maryland Ensemble Theater, a local professional theater company in my hometown of Frederick, Maryland.  As a part of MET I was afforded all kinds of theater experiences, as well as exposed to amazing creative energy. One of MET's core missions is to produce original works, and I quickly realized this was personal goal of my own as well. Through encouragement and guidance, my first play was produced at MET when I was only 22. During my nearly two decades with MET I had the opportunity to see12 of my plays/musicals produced on their stage, spanning across many genres. The success of two of these productions resulted in performances done in Washington D.C. and New York City. 

​

Having grown up in such an amazing and supportive environment where I could be free to create, I realized I wanted to provide the same type of place for other young people. By partnering with my mentor, Julie Herber, I dedicated my time to MET's Summer Outreach Program to do just this. I spent my time witht the theater working this program and creating plays designed for young actors in our area.

When I'm not writing, I am busy running my dog training business, Creekside Canine Training, snuggling with my pups Hank and Harvey, spending time with friends and family, and nerding out to sci-fi and fantasy books, movies, and tv shows.

I hope you enjoy my work as much as I have enjoyed creating it!
