I hope the audience will understand that it is possible to take your passion for something, your hobby, your joy and put it into something wonderful and positive. Chances are if you have found a way to fill a need, fill a void, your community needs that too. We all have expertise that can we can use to impact social change on a larger level.

I was born and raised in Queens in NY. I spent my whole life in theatre, I attended Frank Sinatra High school and then followed my love for theatre and performance to the University at Buffalo. After that I was working in NYC doing theatre auditioning, but also working as a teaching artist. After a trip to Thailand with a college friend Jacqueline Raymond Wegman we knew we needed to take our love for theatre and education and use it as a source for good. International Girls Ensemble was born, now I had to figure out how to run a non profit, I went back to school got my Masters in Arts Administration and have been working at IGE every since.
