BAW (Paris), A.Werba

In early 2024, I wrote a 10-minute performance piece in the style of Wes Anderson, scored to music by one of his early and frequent collaborators, Mark Mothersbaugh. It's now being developed into a short film. I'm also writing a comedic play called, "No More Heads!" for The King Blackbox Theatre. As an actor, I take great care in working as a chameleon. But my standouts are high quality heartbreak and offbeat humour. Oh, and I have 15 years experience in the healthcare industry. Grey's Anatomy season 22?
