Originally from the suburbs of Chicago, I was drawn to the world of theater and music from a young age. When it came time to leave home: my love of electronic dance music, comedy, and the Chicago Cubs brought me to the Theatre School at DePaul University where I studied sound design.

 

While there, I had a chance encounter with a director that led me to a rewarding career in storefront theaters. Over the next several years I worked throughout the city and I discovered a passion for community-engaged theater and new work.

 

Over the past decade, I have had the opportunity to work as a sound designer, audio engineer, and sound supervisor on a variety of productions across the country. I have also been able to share my love of sound design as a mentor and educator at the University of Chicago, DePaul, and the National Theater Institute.

Recently I graduated with my MFA in Sound Design from the Yale School of Drama, and I am working professionally as a sound designer and composer. Recent credits include: Hurricane Diane (Hartford Stage); Notes on Killing Seven Oversight Management and Economic Stability Board Members (Yale Rep); The Seagull (Quinnipiac University); Falcon Girls (Yale Rep).
