Story Coach
I am a director, actor, storyteller, producer, teacher, coach and playwright.
I use whatever aspect of storytelling and the theatre arts best serves the mission of the moment.
I believe that art is a catalyst for personal and community transformation, and as an artist I have a sacred duty to use my gifts in a way that gives back to the world.
