Using theatre, I aim to generate awareness about the fundamental responsibility of our humanity as coheirs of a global community working towards a just society.

I pursue opportunities to develop theatrical performances through the uses of interviews, narrative, and identity to amplify stories of the oppressed, marginalized, and forgotten/unknown.
artist vision.
I am a theatre maker and activist-artist. My playmaking advocates human rights and elevates human dignity, encourages discernment and activates coaction by uncovering the intersectionality of histories and identities in concert with the human experience.

What does the S.J. mean? The S.J. stands for the Society of Jesus —or the Jesuits for short — an apostolic religious order of Catholic priests and brothers grounded in love and gratitude for Christ; animated by the spiritual vision of our founder, St. Ignatius of Loyola, to help others seek God in all aspects of life; and committed to the service of faith and the promotion of justice. The S.J. reminds me of whose I am, why I am, and where I am going; it is an identity and a mission.
