The Welders is a DC-based playwrights’ collective whose mission is to establish an evolving, alternative platform for play development and production. The intent of that platform is to inspire and encourage members to take risks and make bold leaps in exploring the craft of playwriting; produce one performance of work created by each member playwrights over the course of three years; create significant, meaningful, direct engagement between artists and members of the community; and support future generations of DC-area playwrights.

I have been a company member since 2007

My other half, the playwright, director and teacher!

I am an assistant professor of design and technology, specializing in costume and scenic design. I teach courses in costume design and technology, stage makeup, scenic design, as well as introductory courses in design and production.
