About Me

A Story of Theatre Music and Resilience: Discovering My Light.

The last few months have been an emotional tornado full of twists and turns and uncertainty. My life has been a tapestry woven with threads of vulnerability, resiliency, and the unwavering pursuit of my passions. From the depths of a personal crisis to the thrilling highs of taking the stage for the first time, I've learned and grown immensely.

My life as a theater actor is centered around the power of human connection, the enchanted art of storytelling, and the life-changing experience of inhabiting characters that are larger than myself. But even in the crazy world of performing, I have a hidden sanctuary in my band Asterismo where I give my all to the music. I get consolation, expression, and a feeling of community from the melodies and words.

The last several months, however, have put my resolve to the test. A personal crisis threatened to put out the fires of my passions and cast a shadow over my life. The future seemed uncertain, and the world felt dark. Nevertheless, I held fast to the pillars of my art throughout the tempest. Theatre rehearsals became a sanctuary, a space where I could lose myself in the narratives of others, finding a momentary escape from my own struggles.

My lyrics, unfiltered emotions, reflected the internal turmoil, and music turned into my confidante. I found an unexpected strength through it all. Even though it was painful, the crisis made me face my weaknesses and accept my fears and insecurities. It was like a crucible, the intense heat creating a new resilience in me. I discovered how to rely on my network of support and ask for assistance when I most needed it. The support and affection from my friends, family, and fellow artists gave me comfort.

Then my first-ever theater production, "Jepoy and the Magic Circle," presented itself, giving me the chance to find my passion again. I had never experienced such a high degree of vulnerability in a role before, so it was difficult. However, it also felt freeing, like I finally had a chance to voice the unfiltered feelings that had been building. The process of shedding layers of self-doubt and embracing the strength of my own voice during the rehearsals was a voyage of self-discovery. When the curtain rose on opening night, I experienced an adrenaline rush and a mixture of excitement and anxiety.

My vulnerabilities, as well as the stage, were illuminated by the bright spotlight. Nevertheless, the fear left me as soon as I started talking and lost myself in the narrative, to be replaced by a feeling of direction and community. I was now a storyteller, an emotional conduit, and a vehicle for the magic of theater, not just an actor. It's been a difficult but transformative journey. Even though it was terrible, the crisis made me face my problems and come out on top. My passions, theater, and music became my lifelines, my sources of strength and inspiration.

And "Jepoy and the Magic Circle" signaled a sea change, a validation of my fortitude and a reminder of the ability of art to uplift, heal, and illuminate the human spirit.
