Summary

My love of the literary arts and multi-cultural up bringing have allowed me to develop a strong understanding of all genres; however, stage productions are truly my favorite. To me, the Box Office is the first interaction patrons have with a theatre house and that interaction “sets the stage” for their expectations and experiences. My positive and proactive attitude allows me to work well in a team setting as well as to be an independent thinker who is creative and able to brainstorm and think outside the box.
