Performance
HIGH DRAMA
Sure, all the world’s a stage. But sometimes, you’ve got to stand under the spotlight and take the heat.
My earliest performances were in high school plays and as a stage musician. In my young adulthood, I wrote comedy music for KIIS-FM in Los Angeles and performed at Madam Wong’s, UCLA Mardi Gras and other local events. Standup comedy caught my interest back then and I often performed on college campuses and did recorded bits for radio.
I grew interested in combining my love of music and comedy, the results of which are local cabaret and musical improv performances. I also had the great privilege of performing at the Conrad Performing Arts Center in the International Memoir Writer’s Association’s 2021 Memoir Showcase, which featured a piece I wrote, “Trial and Error”. My piece, “A Walk in the Park”, won the same showcase competition the following year. (2022). And more recently (2024), I produced “Good Girls & Badassery”, where I performed an original play called “Shadows & Echoes.)
