My curiosity drives me to constantly seek out new ideas, techniques, and approaches to enhance my craft and push the boundaries of performance. I place a heavy emphasis on an efficient rehearsal room with plenty of room for fun, which allows me to infuse energy, humor, and playfulness into my work.
