Greetings All! I'm so excited that Region 1 is back in person! I am a Professor of Theater Arts at Kingsborough Community College in Brooklyn, where I teach Voice and all levels of Acting, and I'm a proud former Co-Chair for our KCACTF region. I am also co-director of Ancram Opera House (AOH), a professional theater in the Hudson Valley of NY. I'm a Designated Linklater Voice Teacher and for the past seven years at AOH, I have been using that expertise in creating a vibrant community storytelling program. I'll be directing an NPP 1-act and offering a few workshops here at festival (in storytelling/solo performance and arts leadership)--hope to see you! My pronouns: he/him/his.
