Hey you…welcome!

I’m a writer, performer, director, and producer. Ever since my first theatrical production of “The Grapevine Connection” in elementary school I’ve been hooked on a life of creativity and expressing myself. I started writing poetry in elementary school and sang in Jr. High show choir and Highschool madrigal singers (who doesn’t love a hearty ‘Huzzah!’ in their life?) College had me directing my first play by Harvey Fierstein, playing Carol in ‘Oleanna’ and traveling to Edinburgh, Scotland to study the Stanislavsky acting technique.

Straight ‘outta my Midwest higher education I moved to New York City and let’s just say… I experienced a complete culture shock. I auditioned for everything under the sun and walked endless circles around Central Park. If you know anything about horoscopes, you might have heard of your rising sign. It’s basically your motivation for living life. Well, I’m a Gemini rising and that means I’m a gatherer and giver of information! I cannot get enough of ingesting information, letting it percolate in my brain, and giving it out! Imagination and artistry are the gateways I use.

I have produced or co-produced multi-cast and one-person theatre productions and narrative and documentary short films. I produced, directed, and wrote a film shot entirely in Los Angeles. I’ve acted in stage plays and films. I love to dance hip-hop and I’m terrible at it! (contemporary is more my jam) I’m a voracious reader and watcher of film and tv with lists for all three a mile long that I will never get to.

Some years back I began a path of embodiment, self-love, and introspection. My whole life I have been called “so sensitive” and not always with a positive tone. I’ve often wondered why I felt shame or guilt around things “bothering” me or getting under my skin. I often feel like the beauty and weight of the world scratch at me with their intensity. What I have learned is that being a tender soul is a responsibility, one that needs nurturing and care. My experience has been that our society doesn’t typically value “slowing down to feel” but I believe being emotional and feeling all the fruits of life, the ups and downs, is a superpower!

My hope is that through these explorations that I share with you here, we can remind each other of our humanity..
…the dark and light
…the highs and lows
..our joys and frustrations
..our wins and losses
…what gives us passion, what makes us fall
…our carnality and higher power

Kimberly
