Back in the booth!

After taking a break from stage managing to focus on acting, I had the opportunity to return to the booth, and stage manage Francis Matheu's remount of Pepe, as a part of his ConVERGE residency with Intrepid Theatre and Puente Theatre.

Pepe tells the story of José Rizal. I'm so grateful to have been asked to return to this production, after previously stage managing his 2023 production of the play.

P.S. Every time I'm up high in a booth, I feel like Rapunzel because I have such long hair lol

It’s hard to believe that's officially a wrap on Siblings Bond! 

I couldn’t have asked for a better, more hardworking cast and crew to work with (and in the middle of a snowstorm)! Getting to embrace the older sister I am by playing the heartfelt Ellie was something truly special. 

So much love and laughter went into this short film about the unbreakable bond between siblings, and I can’t wait to share more soon!

Sometimes, on days like today, where I have work, school, and I'm filming, I pretend I'm a really lame version of Hannah Montana
