Welcome.

Thank you for visiting my website. I am grateful you are here. Here you will find both information about the plays I have written as well as recent prose writings on things lofty and mundane.

It has been a full decade since I last wrote and staged a play with my co-creator and theater partner, Wendy Remington, and our theater company, Aisling Arts. In the moment, the time off was intentionally vague and necessitated by my move from New York City to Nashville. We'd just come off an immersive, intoxicating and transformative journey making Wake; it was our version of going out on top. In the ten years since, I've made two major moves, had two kids, held down the fort while my husband got his Ph.D, and helped establish roots for my kids in Minnesota. I garden and bake and re-envision efficiencies in our home, all of it messily. I walk and daydream a lot. It is a good life with a lot of bounty and love.

What it is not, is the life of a playwright or artist. It is art-adjacent. Old practices funneled into seedlings or scribbled into notebooks. It is daydream with no object is left to archive the ideas.

I'll be honest. I don't know if that needs to change? It is as possible I will never write another play as it is my best work is yet to come. What I want to connect to is the possibility that middle-age is only half of the journey. Had I not invested in the life I have, I doubt I would have much of merit to say, but having arrived here at the middle, round and satisfied, I find I am no longer fascinated with my own reflection. Collecting moments, enjoying stories, archiving ideas and holding memories in tact, however, does seem like a worthwhile enterprise.

So that is where we'll start, dear reader. .
