I’m a writer, audio producer, and theater artist in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. For a decade, I worked in sustainable building and affordable housing in Austin, Texas. I make work about energy and environment; culture, race and class; and women, families, and parenthood. I love big, messy stories crammed onto the tiny, intimate stage of domestic life.
