This upcoming Spring 2023 semester, I will have the pleasure of teaching South Park Children's Theatre's first playwriting class for ages 12-18. We will be covering play formatting, character development, scene beat analysis, fundamental story structure, and much more. At the conclusion of the 7-week workshop course, students will showcase their original scenes for parents and friends. The scenes will potentially be performed by local actors in the Pittsburgh region. If you are interested in similar beginner's writing classes, please reach out to discuss how I may be of service at your theater, company, school, etc.

The White Cat
a children's play Based on the French fairytale of the same name, The White Cat is a children's play adaptation of the tale. The first production was held during the 2016 season of South Park Children's Theatre, directed by Sandy Boggs in Pittsburgh, PA. On top of being the playwright, I also had the pleasure of creating the role of the prince's manservant "Harry". The White Cat was also the final show in the 2022 season of South Park Children's Theatre, directed by Jeff Boles.

Shadow Minds
a web series After personal struggles with depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts, I decided to explore those internal demons by writing, producing, and directing a web series where not only do we feel such negative emotions within us, but those negative emotions take shape outside us as well. With inspiration from shows like Stranger Things and Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Shadow Minds follows a Scooby gang determined to uncover what exactly these shadowy manifestations of fears and anxieties are up to. Crewed by incredible peers of mine while at Emerson College, the first season was honored with the 38th EVVY Award for Outstanding Field Television Series and a nomination for the 39th EVVY Awards as well. The series is available on YouTube, with season two in post-production and slated for release in 2023.
