Where I’ve Worked

The Bit Theater

I joined The Bit Theater as an intern in the summer of 2025. I have since worked on three improv/sketch shows and am currently spearheading tech for an upcoming original play.

The Limelight Theatre Company

I joined the Limelight Theatre company as a participant in the summer of 2018. I began helping with set construction in 2022, and became fully involved in the tech for nearly every show since 2024. I’ve worked on various aspects of tech theatre there on in nearly a dozen plays: set construction, stagehand work, microphone management, lighting, and more. I recently had the pleasure of being officially hired as an instructor and director, and will begin working over the summer.

I recently joined Magical Starlight Theatre to serve as a stagehand for their 2026 production of Shrek the Musical. It was the largest show I’ve worked on, and I hope to volunteer with them again.
