I like to think of myself as a versatile director, choreographer, and creative producer whose work spans Broadway, national tours, international stages, and immersive experiences. I began my artistic journey as a performer and musician, appearing in groundbreaking productions like Blue Man Group and the original New York cast of De La Guarda. That foundation continues to inform my collaborative approach and visual storytelling today.
I thrive on building creative partnerships and turning bold ideas into compelling theatrical experiences. I have directed and choreographed a wide range of productions, from world premieres to beloved revivals—including Friends: The Parody Musical (Off-Broadway, Las Vegas, Australia, Europe), The Santa Switch (formally What a Wonderful World ), and Beautiful (John W. Engeman Theatre). My production of Jersey Boys became the longest-running show in Engeman Theatre history. Other regional favorites include Forever Plaid and Grease at Drury Lane Theatre.
Touring credits include Jekyll & Hyde (Helen Hayes Award nomination), The Wedding Singer (IRNE, SALT, BroadwayWorld nominations), and Flashdance the Musical (Wellington Award, New Zealand). Beyond traditional theatre, I have collaborated with Cirque du Soleil, Universal Studios, Stryker, Santander Bank, Primary Wave Music Publishing and country artist Clay Walker, bringing theatrical flair to commercial and branded content.
As a writer and director, I created Rockshow, an original play with music that ran Off-Broadway and starred Jonathan Roumie (The Chosen) and Basquiat, a musical based on the life and times of the iconic NYC artist Jean-Michel Basquiat.
On Broadway, I worked alongside Julie Taymor as Resident Director of The Lion King for four years, and assisted Tony Award-winner Rob Ashford on The Wedding Singer at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre.
Proud member of the Lincoln Center Theater Directors Lab, NAMT, Drama League, SDCF Observership Program, and Ars Nova. I hold an M.F.A. from the University of Florida and a B.A. from Western Illinois University.
I served as Artistic Director for Timber Lake Playhouse, Resident Artistic Director for Franco Dragone’s House of Dancing Water in Macau, China and Producing Artistic Director of Greenbrier Valley Theatre. Most recently, I founded Nova Coda Productions where we develop original musicals, live events, and immersive experiences in close collaboration with writers, performers, and producers—always in pursuit of work that challenges, connects, and inspires.
