Hello everyone~

It has been a very long time since I updated my website.  I have been living in Wilmington, NC for almost six years.  I’ve had some very good times and also some very difficult times. I’ve made lots of new, good friends.  I’m in a very serious relationship for almost three years. I had a couple of major surgeries at Duke University Hospital including open-heart, 3 years ago.  I’m doing great now. Before covid I was in the jazz ensemble at Cape Fear Community College and also performing with my theatre company here in town called Theatre For All. Then covid —I did not do much; I couldn’t go anywhere and just stayed at home.  I celebrated my birthday via zoom this year with my closest friends and family.

I am in a new film called Best Summer Ever  (You can watch the trailer here)  that was filmed in Vermont with my Zeno Mountain Farm family. It was supposed to premiere at SXSW last March, but was cancelled.  I was very upset that we couldn’t go, but there wasn’t anything we could do.  That was the very beginning of the pandemic and after that EVERYTHING was cancelled.  It’s the first feature length film that we’ve ever made, an original musical.  I played the role of the school mascot and also played drums on the soundtrack.   It’s received tons of wonderful reviews and is now available on most screening platforms.

One of the best things during the pandemic was resuming drum lessons on Facetime with my amazing friend and mentor and drum teacher, Wes Crawford.  One of the worst things was not being able to go to camp last summer.  It was the first time I missed camp in almost 25 years.  But at the beginning of the pandemic, Zeno started cyber camp on zoom and it really helped to be with my friends even if only on a screen.  I’m excited to be going back this summer, but due to covid only for 6 days.

One big change is that I am living in an apartment !  It’s close to my parents so I can walk back home and I am learning new skills and enjoying it. Now that I’m fully vaccinated I’m getting out and having fun again !

I hope you enjoy my website and as always, if you see me in Wilmington say hi for a free hug !
