About the member

Originally from the U.S. and now based in Cork, I trained in puppet building and performance at the Mudlark Public Theatre (New Orleans). I was a long-time contributor to the International New Orleans Giant Puppet Festival. Since relocating to Ireland, I have become a member of Sample Studios and contributed to the Slow Camera Exchange archival project, focusing on analog photography and documentation.

Recent work includes co-facilitating the creative writing workshop Mercury as a Fish, which culminated in a group exhibition at Cork Public Library, and contributing an installation to the F Project exhibition at GOMA (Waterford). Collaborative projects include Compulsive Static Disorder, a live music-driven exploration of asemic writing, and A Ladder on the Edge of Living, a performance developed during a residency at Pedvāle Art Park, culminating in a live performance screening at Cinesalon Film Festival 2025.

I am a multidisciplinary artist working at the intersections of puppetry, performance, and installation. My practice investigates alternative forms of communication and emotional transparency, holding the expressive potential of material and movement as a devotional practice to open subtle shifts in perception and awareness. Through ritual theatre, object manipulation, and experimental film, I aim to offer audiences momentary access to the soft places where vulnerability and wonder meet.
