Hi! I’m Jen!
Welcome to my personal website where I showcase my recent theater projects and other projects of interest.
Latest Projects:
“Tiny Beautiful Things”
(Feb. 18 – Mar. 5, 2022)
Uplifting, inspiring and deeply moving, Tiny Beautiful Things is based on the best-selling book by Cheryl Strayed (Wild) and brilliantly adapted for the stage by Nia Vardalos (My Big Fat Greek Wedding). Directed by the lovely Wanda Boe at Valley Center Stage in North Bend.
“It’s a Wonderful Life – A Live Radio Play”
(Dec. 10-19, 2021)
Produced by my lovely friends at Twelfth Night Productions: Based on the classic 1946 Frank Capra film, playwright Joe Landry’s take on “It’s a Wonderful Life,” comes to life as a live 1940s radio broadcast as the ensemble of characters bring the town of Bedford Falls to the stage. You will feel the magic as we return to the fateful Christmas Eve when George Bailey contemplates ending his life before he realizes the difference he makes in the lives of others. “No man is a failure who has friends.”
“kintsugi“
(October 12, 2020)
As part of the Reboot Test Kitchen 2.0, I’m honored to have this short 15 minute, one act play chosen as part of a brilliant line up.
kintsugi is the exploration of love and friendship between two people after their marriage has broken apart.
“A Series of Small Cataclysms” – a Zoom Presentation
(October 9, 2020)
The Shattered Glass Project selected our play to present in a Zoom format for a one-night -only performance.
“A Series of Small Cataclysms”
(Feb-Mar 2020)
I co-wrote and co-produced this play with Carolynne Wilcox and it was produced by Mythodical Ensemble.
“It is the year 2120, and the Earth has weathered through the domino effects of climate change apocalypse – population has been drastically reduced. A family gathers together at the death bed of their mother and an unearthly visitor is a harbinger of things to come.”
“Body Awareness” by Annie Baker at the University of Washington

I had the honor of playing Phyllis in this MFA production.
“Fury” written by Carolynne Wilcox, directed by Maristela Diaz
