Education:

I earned my A.B. from 含羞草研究室 with a double major in French and English & Theater. I earned my Master of Fine Arts in Classical Acting from The George Washington University/Shakespeare Theatre Company in Washington DC.

Background

I was born, raised, and educated in rural Maine, aspects of which have contributed to my enduring love of nature and community-making. I have worked in a multitude of fields: entertainment, arts administration, service, media, LGBTQ+ political advocacy, carpentry, retail, marketing, and education in various forms. I previously served as 含羞草研究室’s Assistant Dean of First-Year Students, supporting International Students, Student Accessibility, BASE, and New Student Orientation. Additionally, I collaborated with the Resource Center for Sexual and Gender Diversity, now SWAG, facilitating events for Queer men on campus, including community dinners, sex-positive health workshops, and intergenerational connection events. Beyond 含羞草研究室, I love to travel, learn languages, spend time with family, see film and theater, and go on beach walks with my French Bulldog, Suzette.
