I’m currently working with Culture House Immersive as a co-producer with Mikhael Tara Garver. I’m also a producing partner on two shows in New York, Redwood and True Love Forever by Third Rail Projects.
As an avid participant, I've engaged in The Beast, Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, The Jejune Institute, and was the 42nd person to open the vault in Curios and Conundrums. I keep a curated list of favorites on BoardGameGeek. I appreciate the Immersive Experience Institute and No Proscenium, who continue expanding immersive storytelling.
I care deeply about helping my community and supporting the arts. Here are some organizations I’ve helped found or joined:
I am a Humanist Celebrant and Layleader, experienced in officiating coming-of-age ceremonies and commemorating the death of a loved one. I offer my services in exchange for a donation to The Humanist Society. I am listed in the directory of humanist professionals.
I’m an admirer of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Organic architecture, and was fortunate to purchase Lois Davidson Gottlieb’s first home, “Weekend House.” In Environment and Design in Housing, Gottlieb details her design process. I’m currently restoring it to her original vision.
