Studio B

CO-FOUNDER, HONCHO

Non-profit arts organization hell bent on creating community through the arts; we spotlight local artists and create begging-for-more, multi-disciplinary events. We’re doing what large arts orgs can only dream of: building a rabidly loyal following, and selling out every show.

What I do: work with my amazing co-honcho, Jenny Turner Hall, to write and perform in fabulous events of all kinds; foster intensive collaborations with a multitude of professional artists; and execute successful marketing, social media, and fundraising campaigns.
