What I do

What I do

Part of the reason I share what I do here is that I want to encourage others to take the leap and create their own bliss.

Ranging from singer-songwriter to bluesy swing to Americana. Look for the Surly Martyrs EP “Songs in the Key of U” in 2025. I’m also starting a list of open mics; link here. Check out this resource as well: OpenMikes.org

Funny, dark, quirky, and warm are just some of the adjectives used to describe this collection of stories written and set in different cafes from Buenos Aires, Chicago, Bogotá, New York, and others.

A series of affirmations and visualizations that help you focus, relax, and sleep.

In this podcast, I talk to a variety of artists, some of whom have made the switch to art later in life or who still toil away at full-time jobs so that they can keep creating.

I offer workshops and one-on-one coaching for acting and directing.

As a teacher coach with over twenty years of experience, I offer coaching on many types of writing processes.

Filmmaking

Ploverfield Productions

I write, direct, and act in a few films. Most recently, I was in “Sanitize This!” A short about the perils of dating during pandemics. My upcoming film Café Nostalgia has begun filming and should be completed by early 2027.

Create

Creativity is the key to life. I teach creativity in the classroom, and I encourage it any chance I get, especially in myself. If nothing else, you’ll see that if I can do it, so can you. The journey starts with deciding to take that first step.
