- When did you first discover theater/what was your first experience?
Little Shop of Horrors in a little black box theater.
- When/how did you become a writer? Is there a writer, show, or text that particularly inspired you?
After dealing with depression in High School, I learned that if I could laugh at something, I could live through it. Writing helped me find my voice and create a world I could escape into.
- How do you describe your style/work?
I like to think of myself as the Judd Apatow of musical theater, hilarious songs based in the truth of a character.
- What is most rewarding to you about writing music?
The ability to express a difficult feeling in a creative way.
