DC PAL of the Month

Where: From Washington DC originally, moved away - variously (College, Tours, NY and Regional Theatre) from 1990 - 1996
What: Music (Trumpet and Voice - classical), Dance (Theatre and Ballet), Theatre (most styles - mostly Musical Theatre)

Why: "A lot. Mostly, my son and admittedly the attention that theatre brings. Lately, travel and learning/absorbing anything that is different and odd. Also, laughter inspires me and passing on any information I can to others."

When: Last production was Strathmore's TAKE JOY (Choreographer); next productions are TREEMONISHA - Washington Savoyards (Choreographer) & 26th Annual Helen Hayes Awards - Choreographer

Random fact: My godfather is the mascot for the Washington Redskins.

Affiliations: Adventure Theatre - Artistic Director
Young Nonprofit Professionals Network DC - Executive Director Roundtable - Co-chair
