Playwriting
QUID PRO QUOThis senior project of mine in college - my first foray into writing about my own identity - was an entrant in the American College Theatre Festival where it ended up winning national playwriting awards and was chosen out of thousands nationwide to play the Kennedy Center in Washington DC. It is written to be performed entirely in American Sign Language.

JOURNEYS OF IDENTITYA historical dramatization of the founding of the first school for the deaf in America, commissioned through a collaboration between the Old State House of Hartford, Connecticut and the National Theatre of the Deaf, workshopped at the Eugene O'Neill playwriting center. This production relied heavily on intricately choreographed shadow interpretation, which was integrated into the blocking of the actors, to make it accessible for all audiences.

JUDGMENT DAYAfter premiering in Australia, this comedy about two rogue angels doing more harm than good to the man they were assigned to save has been my most enduring play, which I later turned into a musical. My friends from the cast of Deaf West's Broadway tour of BIG RIVER did a successful reading of it.
