This is my professional goal that stretches over all projects. From tackling difficult topics like the drug epidemic affecting our Northeastern fishing communities to studying and imagining new models for funding the American theatre, I am dedicated to amplifying and advocating for why theatre is integral to building a democratic, people-focused future.
MY GOAL:
To sew theatre back into the American fabric.
A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME:
I was born in Moscow, Russia, adopted by my Mom, and raised in South Florida. I credit my Grandparent’s DVD collection “Broadway’s Lost Treasures" for unlocking my passion for theatre, as well as the show tunes Mom played for me in our car rides to school and tennis. I wanted to be a surgeon until I discovered reading could be enjoyable in 8th grade (Thank you, Mr. Martin). In August 2020, I moved to New York City. Four years later, I graduated from New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts (Performance Studies) in 2024. Currently, I am pursuing an MFA in Dramaturgy at Columbia University’s School of the Arts.
