- When did you first discover theater/what was your first experience?
My first theatre experience was a Christmas play in kindergarten in which I played a worker out in the cold. My first line was “but it’s nice and warm in here”. My most iconic moment.
- When/how did you become a writer? Is there a writer, show, or text that particularly inspired you?
I started writing when a theatre club I was a part of was taking a 10 minute play that one a festival and turning it into a musical. I wrote my first theatre song and got accepted.Sondheim is my idol.
- How do you describe your style/work?
I love extended harmony and spicy chords. My musical world starts with Jazz and Rnb so I love playing with groove as well.
- What is most rewarding to you about writing music?
I feel amazing when people find the truth in the songs I write, then having a director interpret that.. I love being the first step in that process.
