BIO

I have been involved in theatre since I was nine years old. My performance experience ranges from high school theatre and the Jimmy Awards, to working professionally with companies in the Pittsburgh area including Front Porch Theatricals and CLO. Although most of my experience has been on the stage performing, I have always appreciated the work that goes on behind the scenes. I have become more involved in those aspects in some of the latest shows I've worked on. Most recently, I was the costume assistant for GRAND HOTEL with Front Porch Theatricals under Valerie Webster.





My theatre background has helped to shape my viewpoint in other aspects of my life, including photography. I see things in a narrative framework which influences my artistic works. Knowing the process of the theatre industry and having personal connections with industry professionals aid in the development of my image creation for my fellow performers.



I am currently completing an Interdisciplinary Studies degree at Point Park University with focuses in Photography and Theatre Production. At the 2019 Point Park Juried Art Show, I was honored to receive the "Best In Show" award for my work. Although my path is different from what I envisioned and is constantly evolving, I take every one of my experiences as a learning opportunity which has helped me grow into a full person. I strive to help my fellow professionals show their full selves in the materials that we create together.

Review: FRONT PORCH CABARET Reunites Old Friends at Front Porch Theatricals

Front Porch announces a season of Finn and Sondheim, in an evening of song and stories. As far as I'm concerned, if you want to measure the pulse of the Pittsburgh theatre scene, you will feel it the most intensely and regionally in Front Porch. The company's mission to produce exciting musicals specifically highlighting the talents of Pittsburgh-area artists makes it feel somehow organically part of the community; much as I love seeing the talents of major Broadway stars at Pittsburgh CLO every years, there's a thrill in seeing a Front Porch show and knowing 'all of this was made here.' Though Front Porch's impresario and producer Leon S. Zionts passed away several years ago, he has remained an active member of its creative community, as the shortlist of shows he crafted with fellow producers Bruce E. G. Smith and Nancy D. Zionts continues to guide the company's mission statement forward.

BWW Review: FUN HOME Serves as a Beacon, Outlet, Refuge

Every family has its secrets, its lies, its loves. In the Bechdel's home, secrets of sexuality and queerness transcended a generation but could never be discussed. Welcome to Fun Home, a look inside the family life of Alison Bechdel, a lesbian cartoonist whose gay father operated a funeral home and taught English in their small Pennsylvanian town before committing suicide soon after learning of his daughter's sexual orientation. (Try advertising that on a radio spot!)
BWW Review: BRIGHT STAR Illuminates Front Porch Theatricals' Season

The southern charm of a North Carolina summer would only be complete with banjo music echoing through the peaks and valleys of the expansive Appalachian Mountains. In the year 1923, in the town of Zebulon, somewhere twixt the Atlantic coast and the Great Smoky Mountains, young love finds Alice Murphy (Erin Lindsey Krom) and Jimmy Ray Dobbs (Jerreme Rodriguez). Intimacy leads to divisions within the families, stories and decades are crossed and intertwined, and the stage for Front Porch Theatricals' bluegrass musical Bright Star is set.
