Board Member and Performance Chair @Creativesphere

Kitchener, ON, CA

I am happy to announce my election to the Board of Directors of Kitchener-Waterloo Musical Productions (KWMP). For 75 years, KWMP has brought high-calibre musical theatre to Waterloo Region, and I am honored to contribute to this legacy through this appointment.This marks another significant milestone in my journey as a lifelong volunteer, community builder, and theatre practitioner which began in 1992 with the Trinity Community Players in New Hamburg. Over the years, as the organization evolved into The Community Players (TCP), my involvement nurtured the growth, quality and the overall reputation of TCP. Having spent the last 17 years as their Artistic Director, my tenure was highlighted by several landmark productions including, 12 Angry Men, Dial ‘M’ for Murder in the Studio Theatre and Titanic, Cats, Aida, Ragtime and Mary Poppins in the Trinity Theatre.In 2017, my career took me to the UK where I was fortunate to continue my theatre journey spending five years at King\'s College School in Wimbledon. As the technical theatre manager and production designer for the drama department, I played a pivotal role in leading theatre improvements, improving the calibre of productions and nurturing young talent. This time was highlighted by such productions as His Dark Materials,The Hunchback of Notre Dame,Jesus Christ Superstar, Peter Pan, and Dorian. These experiences honed my leadership skills in technical production, lighting design, production design and mentoring which now gives me a more global perspective to my work.As a lifelong volunteer and advocate for the community, I view this new role with KWMP as a continuation of my personal commitment to giving back to the community. Joining this talented and storied organization, I look forward to leveraging my experience and personal ethos to bring new opportunities and a fresh perspective to whatsonstage in Waterloo Region.
