The Full Story

I believe the arts thrive when the building, the team, and the programming are treated as one mission.

 

Since then, I've worked in arts administration at Jacob's Pillow, Dayton Performing Arts Alliance, and Barrington Stage Company, where I now direct guest services and sales. At Barrington, I increased revenue by more than $200,000 in a single season and negotiated venue rentals. At Jacob's Pillow, I designed a ticket-insurance program that protects outdoor performance revenue from weather cancellations.

I also help lead outreach for Dance Data Project, where I secured $100,000 to build DDP PRO, a free, searchable platform where companies and venues can find female-identifying choreographers, composers, designers, and directors. I consult with arts organizations on ticketing and data systems, sales forecasting, and leadership transitions.

I lead performing arts organizations by managing what keeps them running: revenue, people, systems, and partnerships. My career began on stage, including national and international tours of A Chorus Line, West Side Story, and Show Boat, and I'm a member of the Actors' Equity Association.

I then spent eight years at Northern Kentucky University, where I directed the BFA Dance Track as a tenured associate professor, grew the program from 4 to 35 majors, and served as strategic lead on a $1.5 million campaign for a new facility.

Whether you're hiring, planning a season or a venue project, or looking for a collaborator, I'd like to hear from you.
