About Me

Picture
As an artist and practitioner of arts-learning and community building, I take a non-linear approach to storytelling that harnesses the power of poetry, music, and monologue and often includes mythic characters, projected imagery, sound art, and dance in the mix. My intentions are to use my talents and resources to act and advocate for environmental stewardship and social justice, to provide equitable access to the arts, and to create cross-cultural connections that foster harmonious living. Recent offerings are an extension of the work that I’ve been doing for more than two decades as a poet, theater artist, concert performer, arts program and workshop facilitator. I enjoy collaborating with other artists and I have a longstanding interest in poetry-inspired creativity. The musicality of language fascinates me and my art making practice is continually fueled by the interplay between music and the written and spoken word. Whether I’m creating for print, video, or performance, it is important that the work is emotionally expressive and both visually and intellectually stimulating.
