where do we go from here (in-progress)
Premiering in Fall 2023, “where do we go from here” is the third and final solo to this make-shift-trilogy— including fan favorite/sky puppet galore, “Up & Coming” and newest premiere “Baby Pink”. “where do we go from here” employs a flip-book-like compression of speed and force to fabricate scenes of pleasure and unrest in one human body.
Human Resources/HR Department (in-progress)
"HR Department" is a play on human resources. A highly collaborative trio between myself, Virginia Broyles, and Jessica Boone — Stay tuned for future performances!

“be my baby” body
A scrubby little collection of my imperfect body over the years -- lipsyncing practices, favorite apartments, fieldhouse studios, "sun” rooms, all 2017 thru now. “Baby Pink” premieres on 11/20/2022 at SUNDAY SERIES curated by loveDANCEmore.
