TAP Work:
“I am currently in the process of developing my own playwriting career as well as applying for Teaching Artist Jobs. I just got a new job as a Theater Teaching Assistant with Theater Apollo which I’m excited about! I am also interested in applying to grants for doing my playwriting workshops with adults.”
Most Memorable TAP Moment:
“My favorite TAP moment was drawing a picture using coffee, mustard, jam and a pen. I never knew coffee could be used to paint with! Making some visual art with unconventional materials was an amazing reminder to shake up one’s process, make art silly and think outside of the box.”
