bio

I am an interdisciplinary artist and facilitator of storytelling from New York City. I am currently pursuing a Master’s in Lighting Design at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama in Cardiff, Wales.

In 2021, with a colorful background in nightlife and non-traditional theater spanning a decade, I graduated magna cum laude with a general BA in Theatre Arts from the City College of New York. My lived experiences as a Filipino, genderful child of diaspora inform my passion for justice-oriented, collaborative workspaces. I am a proud alumnus of Roundabout Theater Company's Theatrical Workforce Development Program. I am also TWDP’s first Fellow to graduate to Teaching Artist status, and taught electrics skills to incoming Cohorts of TWDP and New York City high schoolers.

From 2022-2024, I was the full-time lighting operator for Punchdrunk’s long-running New York production of Sleep No More.

Gratitude to Mama, Kuya, Ate, the transnational upbringing, and the sweetness of being.
