Working on Somewhere marked my first experience participating in the full rehearsal process at Loyola, and it was an incredible opportunity for growth. I developed my ability to project my voice confidently on stage, a skill essential for connecting with an audience. This production pushed me to expand my capabilities as a performer, and while I grew tremendously, it also reminded me that there is always more to learn and room to evolve in my craft.

Stained Glass Shattered was a Second Stage project, guided by the playwright herself, Makenna Van Raalte. As a staged reading and second stage project, it marked my first experience in this format. This opportunity provided valuable insight into the developmental phase of a play, deepening my understanding of how scripts evolve and the collaborative effort required to bring a story to life.
