- Relationship to Puppetry
- I'm a puppet builder and designer.
- What First Got Me Interested in Puppetry
- I've just always loved watching the muppets and things when I was younger. I am a theatre person and make props and design things, and I guess one day I kinda got thrown into making a puppet, and have been ever since. It's a love hate relationship we have.
- My Puppetry (or Puppet) Hero
- I guess I do a type of bunraku mixed muppet style. Definetely admire the Henson's and Julie Taymor.
- If I Were a Puppet, I'd Be...
- a tomgirl version of gonzo.
- More About Me:
- I am a professional freelance artist, prop designer, scenic painter, and more for film and theatre. I also make puppets for film and theatre. I am the producer and director for a small production company I co-founded called "Imaginary Light Bulb Factory", that creates avant garde multi-media, multi-cultural shows. In which, I have directed, produced, and designed my first series of shows entitled "Tableau Vivant Nouveau", Which is a collaborative performance that brings paintings to life through live performance, scenic elements, music, and puppets.
I just relocated to Long Beach, California from Florida, and do crazy shenanigans everyday.

I will put you on my list of theater artists. Very nice painting and upholstery! (that was a cool set, with all the pink vinyl). If you come see any of the shows in June, be sure to say hi!

We're also performing an adult version of the show at REDCAT on June 14, and screening DANTE'S INFERNO, a toy theater film we both worked on at REDCAT on June 15.
best wishes,
