Aristic Practice

I'm a disabled theatre artist, largely focused on
writing solo-performances and crafting devised theatre with alike collaborators. I have experience as a lighting designer and lighting operator, but am currently working in arts administration, education, and theatrical production. Writing was, and still is, my first love. Whether it be on the page, for the stage (or both).

Journalistic Work

Speaking of the page, I used to work for the carillon, the University of Regina's student newspaper. Having worked as a sports writer, sports editor, and finally as the editor-in-chief, I have a variety of experience working with a team and flying solo. You can find my by-line at CBC, FiveThirtyEight, Insider, Healthline, Verywell Mind, Accessibility.com, and IT Pro, among many others

Here's a link to my most recent work.

The Rest

I also used to be a national-team level athlete in wheelchair basketball, a football coach (yes, really), and an adminstrative assistant.

More interesting to you, I do take freelance writing and editing gigs, and have written policy for multiple companies.
