Welcome.
I'm a NYC-based playwright, librettist, and lyricist. 

​I write about: Sanitation workers who find treasure in the trash. Food service workers with dreams of Bollywood. Chasidic Jews addicted to rock and roll. My plays explore the rituals, routines, and unexpected humor of unrepresented micro-communities. I'm ignited by the stories that expand my world.

​Next Up.
