The Road Less Traveled by M. Scott Peck has always been one of my favorite books because its title has served as a perfect metaphor for my professional and personal journeys'
I am an award -winning Actor, Theater/Filmmaker, Artist Educator, Disability Equity & IDEA Consultant & Content Creator with over 35 years of experience in the arts, education, and advocacy. My passion lies in using improvisation exercises and expressive arts tools to design and facilitate workshops and trainings that foster disability equity, community, belonging, goal-setting, and resilience.
Throughout my career, I have acted across film, television, and theater, directed theater and film projects served as a private acting coach, and taught acting to a wide range of students youth and adult. As a speaker and solo performer, I address topics such as disability inclusion, resiliency, and goal-setting.
My creative work motivated me to launch The Rainbow Butterfly Café (2015) a content creation and disability equity consulting company dedicated to breaking disability stigmas and celebrating disability culture through solo performances and expressive arts-based workshops. I also founded Dreaming Big On A Swing Entertainment, where I produce content that centers disabled talent and multi-marginalized artists in front of and behind the camera.
Whether performing, directing, creating and producing content or sharing personal stories I am committed to celebrating disability intersectionality, belonging, the power of resiliency and creating a more inclusive world for all.
