I am a maker, producer, scholar, and dance leader.

I have worked extensively as a creative producer and consultant with festivals and cultural organizations across North America as well as on individual artistic projects in North America and Europe and am currently the Artistic Director of KlezKanada.

I teach and lead Yiddish dance at festivals around the world, create and teach theatre, and am also a photographer and graphic designer.

 

I am a PhD Candidate in Theatre and Performance Studies at York University. My research examines the ways in which heritage and traditional cultural practices are performed on modern stages and in contemporary life. Other interests include critical heritage studies, cultural memory, cultural policy, performance creation, the director in the devising studio, and photography in/as performance.
