Description

Citizen: Canada/ Portugal (EU)

Having over 10 years experience with creating new performance work I have a keen interest in new trends in contemporary art and performance. While I produce my own work, I also maintain a major connection to community arts, engagement and marketing.

I have over a decade of experience working as a performance-maker and community arts facilitator. I hold a diploma in Theatre Arts from Grant MacEwan University (2004) and a BFA degree in Interdisciplinary Performance from the University of British Columbia (2013). Between 2005-09 I was the Artistic Director of New City Collective, and independent theatre company based out of Bangkok, Thailand. I have worked professionally with theatre, dance and visual art organizations in the field of online media marketing, community engagement, research, teaching and having my own artistic practice that is based on a creation-development-tour model with a bases in work inspired by Grotowski and Boal and contemporary theatre and movement artists such as Roberta Lepage, Kerr Wells, Crystal Pite and Ame Henderson. I have taught and produced work in Canada, USA, Thailand, Belgium, Holland and Germany and straddle both worlds of contemporary theatre and new media visual arts.
