Congrats to the 2025 BroadwayWorld nominees! I'm lucky to receive a few, either solo or with a team, and I'm jazzed so many talented friends are getting recognized.

Minnesota theatre goers, vote! It doesn't matter who wins, just that we celebrate each other.

A weekend of stunting it up on a commercial and a short to start off a month of play rehearsals for a half dozen shows. Big thanks to my filmmaking peers for helping kickstart this fall season into high gear.

First rehearsal for #WestSideStory, with Jake and Kiko focusing on generational violence breeding tribalism towards a grounded, violent energy.

"Anita: You saw how they dance: like they have to get rid of something quick. That's how they fight.
Maria: To get rid of what?
Anita: Too much feeling."

I'm excited to be taking my first steps to join Stage Directors and Choreographers Society. While I'm waiting for full membership to be the right course for me, today I join alongside thousands of theatre leaders who stand for improving the quality of financial and workplace protections for all.

Lance Krohn and I began a two-week residency teaching Skills Proficiency Tests at Austin Peay State University! A huge thank you to Jason Paul Tate for connecting me with the effusive Darren Michael and the passionate theatre students.
