Getting to know you...Getting to know all about you....

I’m a Performing Arts and Social Justice Major (a PASJ as insiders would call it). It is a very fancy and pretentious sounding major, but it simply means I am a theatre major. I was born in Boston, Massachusetts but was raised in Denver, Colorado. Like most theatre kids, I spend most of my spare time doing theatre work. I am currently the Stage Manager for the College Players and I am a full time faculty member at Young Actors Theatre in Denver. Even though theatre is what I study, what I do professionally, what I do in my free time, and what I dream about when I close my eyes, I consider myself very lucky to be able to do what I love.
It therefore probably comes as no surprise then, since theatre is all I do, that my computer experience is based on my technical theatre experience. Lights, sound and video cues are all controlled via computer boards, and while I know how to tell the computer where and when to turn on a light upstage left, I do not know the mechanics behind what I am plugging in. I am excited to learn computer basics because computer skills are fast becoming mandatory for a successful technical theater career.
