About me

I am a playwright based out of Cincinnati, Ohio.  I have been writing since 2023.  I generally write plays that are for young audiences or feature parts to be played by young performers.  I enjoy writing plays that make readers and audience members ask questions.  I have had pieces performed virtually and in the United States.  I additionally have pieces published with Drama Notebook and Dramatic Chaos.
