About me
I am an American Director who has been based in London for the past 10 years working for several years now on professional, mid-scale work. My ideal job is directing Shakespeare in a unique way: kinetic and through a “contemporary lens” which I can tell you more about if you are happy to meet. I also am thrilled about all sorts of tragedy; the darker and deeper the better, and I try to implant an element of expressionism/surrealism into everything I do, taking the audience on an emotional journey that weaves together with the best dialogue I can find. When given the choice, I choose scripts which lend themselves to this, be that Ionesco’s Absurdism, Tennessee Williams’ expressive stage directions, or merely Shakespeare’s rhythm which inspires me.Additional skills:
I have background in all areas of design and can participate most collaboratively in Set and Lighting Design. I often work as a freelance carpenter, technician, or lighting designer.
Other Skills: Producing, Financial Modelling, Business Planning, Set Design, Carpentry, Props, Lighting, Rigging, Stage Management, Advanced Excel, Intermediate MS Office, and Intermediate Graphic Design
Industry awards:
Special Jury Prize - Romania
