Bio
PERFORMANCE
Trained in puppetry both in LA (Henson Studios) and NYC, I am adept at styles ranging from “muppet-style” puppetry to Bunraku. Having studied at the Henson lot in LA, my puppetry can be seen on television (Doom Patrol- Warner Brothers; The Hollywood Puppet Show-Fuse; The Eric Andre Show-Comedy Central; and Stevie TV-VH1) music videos for Sony, Indie Features, webseries and live around town (The Poetry Brothel, Women in Vaudeville and private events). I have performed with Marionettes for Mabou Mines (A Doll’s House- Lee Breuer) and Puppetworks (Park Slope Brooklyn); and have also had the pleasure of doing Bunraku style puppetry for an opera with the well respected 3rd generation puppeteer, Basil Twist.
TEACHING ARTIST
I have taught puppet building workshops as well as muppet-style puppetry classes for college students at New York Film Academy and for animators at DreamWorks Animation. I’ve also lead elementary school workshops at Puppetworks in NYC and privately in LA.
