Performer

To be honest, I’ve had a tricky relationship with performing. I grew up loving to act and sing in public and that followed me through my undergraduate degree. When I got to grad school, however, I entered a very political, oppressive program that was more about tearing people down than helping them find their voice in the world. As a result, I spent many years battling severe anxiety around public performances, to the point of making myself sick. After doing my internal work, I have finally reclaimed this part of my life and have rekindled the joy I feel for sharing the gifts I was given with others.
