ARTIST'S STATEMENT

Throughout transitions in recorded human history, playwrights entertain with works that use their relevant world paradigms to highlight the tumultuous effects they have on character's actions and emotions. The ability to tap into a "collective psyche" to create a mirror-world of fiction that accords itself to this temporal reality is the salience of my work. I unashamedly explore any hypothesis posited about human nature; then, I create experimental entertainment models of communication, or miscommunication. These exploratory findings serve their end in an effort to weaken the façade and connect the audience to their own instincts, ethics, and identity. I do this without discounting the deliciousness of drama. Moving with intention, the opportunities presented by rapidly changing ideologies, scrutiny of constructs, and a massive technology boom - something that uniquely affects us all - are worth a creative interpretation that boasts intensity.
