I attended Grand Valley State University, and received a minor in Theatre. During this time, I took what courses were available about Theatre in Education, as well as spending time working with various groups and clubs. Since then, I have become a member of a professional Shakespeare troupe, where I serve as a member of our Board of Education.

I have also taught a summer drama course, and done various workshops during the school year.
