Originally from the San Francisco Peninsula, I landed in Ann Arbor by accident for what was supposed to be a 4 year stay. Six A2 moves later, I finally ended up in Burns Park. The chance to be a part of the Burns Park Players played a big role in my decision to move to Olivia Avenue - it's an AMAZING neighborhood! I’ve been involved (house, crew or cast) in every show since “Beauty and the Beast” (2008) when my kids were 1st graders; I forced them to do it, they loved it, and we were all hooked. The highlight of my BPP experience was playing the Cowardly Lion in 2024. And now getting to do SpongeBob with my 24 year old (former 1st grader)! I am so incredibly grateful for this phenomenal group of people who make up BPP, and my knitting peeps. Thanks to Brian, Parker, Harrison, Vinny & all of my neighbors for their support!
