What qualities should a 'great storytelling or collaboration space’ have?
AIt should be flexible, comfortable, and inspiring, and encourage creativity and open communication.
What first sparked your love of performing arts, shared experiences or technology?
I decided I wanted to pursue performing arts in high school. I solo designed, programmed, and ran lights for the holiday dance show. Seeing my work on stage and seeing the production come together from inception encouraged me to study theatre in college.
