Writing has been a passion of mine since I was a kid. I used to fill notebooks upon notebooks with stories, short plays, questionable poetry, Phantom of the Opera fanfiction, comedy writing––you name it. I still love to write, and once in a while, I'm lucky enough to do it for fantastic outlets like the ones credited below.

  • “Post-Pandemic, Cambodian Rock Band's Tour Is Ready to Storm the Stage.” Playbill.com, 25 May 2021

    For this piece, I interviewed award-winning playwright Lauren Yee and Signature Theatre Artistic Director Paige Evans to talk about the origins of Cambodian Rock Band, how Yee's groundbreaking play with music was being adapted for a national tour in the post-COVID-19 era, and the significance of the show's Asian and Asian-American representation in the time of #StopAsianHate.

  • “Renaissance Women: Explore the Making of Six’s Band.” Playbill, Sept-Oct. 2021 Issue

    This interview with Six: the Musical's American music supervisor Roberta Duchak about the Broadway musical's unprecedented all-woman band was printed for the Fall 2021 Playbills when Broadway returned to live performances after the COVID-19 shutdown.

  • “Why Filthy Rich Is a New Kind of Family Drama.” Playbill, 21 Sept. 2020

    In December of 2019, I attended my first out-of-town press junket in New Orleans for the brand-new FOX drama Filthy Rich, starring Kim Cattrall, Steve Harris, Corey Cott, Melia Kreiling, Aaron Lazar, and more. I got to interview the cast, showrunner Abe Sylvia, and the show's creator Tate Taylor about what made the Southern Gothic family drama so alluring.

  • “What Viewers Need to Know About the Cast of Fox's Upcoming Rent.” Playbill, PLAYBILL INC., 8 Dec. 2018.

    This was my first byline and print feature for Playbill’s 2018 December issue!

  • “Art in the Age of ‘So What?’: Using Narrative to Spark Educational Engagement.” Inside/Out, The Museum of Modern Art, 2 June 2015

    This article, created for MoMA's staff blog Inside/Out, was from the very start of my career when I was a 12-month Digital Learning Intern at MoMA. It was written as the culmination of grant-funded independent research that I conducted as part of my internship. My fellow interns and I had the option to travel wherever we wanted and pursue whatever questions sparked our interest. I decided to travel to California to attend the San Francisco International Film Festival and visit the LACMA and Getty Museums. I wanted to explore the utilization of narrative in educating and informing audiences, via documentary and VR works (through the festival) as well as through wall texts and audio guides in the aforementioned museum spaces. Even though this is a very early piece from the start of my career, I wanted to include it in my Gallatin application because I think it demonstrates how long I have been fascinated with what narrative can do.
