My passion for storytelling shines brightest on stage. Here are some of my notable works:

This play follows Zara Singleton, a talented sculptor who draws inspiration from pioneering African American women artists to create a commissioned piece, celebrating their enduring legacy and the power of art to transform lives.
"Hedda and George"
A fresh examination of Ibsen's Hedda Gabler, set in modern-day Harlem, tackling issues of race, class, and generational trauma with a humanist approach.
