I am honored to be joining the team of artists for WHY ARTS.  I have always made a conscious choice in my life to be connected with organizations whose goals include arts and education.

During my undergraduate, graduate and post graduate experience, Theatre and Education have been a primary focus.  I possess a B.A. in theatre from Nebraska Wesleyan University and a Master’s in Theatre from the University of Nebraska-Omaha.  During the year, I work in a variety of venues working as a teaching artist.  I have kept busy as an Artist in Residence with the Nebraska Arts Council, The ARTery, Nebraska Shakespeare, Metro Community College’s College for Kids and Performer’s Edge.

I am also very active in the theatre community as an actor, designer and director.   I feel that Omaha has a thriving Arts Community and I make every effort to continuously be involved and look forward to all of the opportunities that WHY ARTS will present.
