Writing Awards

1987 - Lincoln High School Creative Writing Award

I won the creative writing contest hosted by my high school for a fantasy novella I wrote about Barbarians and Swords. Please don't ever ask to see it. It was OK for a teenager but otherwise cringe worthy.

1995 - Duquesne University Premiere Performances Playwriting Contest

I won the playwriting contest with my one act, Imaginary Exits. This was about a young man unable to deal with growing up whose imagination takes form in his apartment and can't leave. This was performed by the Duquesne Red Masquers as part of their one act festival.

2017 - Selected to Appear in Fractured Fairy Tales

My short play, The Princess and the Great Gold Dragon was selected to appear with two other short plays at the Avenue Theatre in Rochester as part of the RACT Theatre Productions Fractured Fairy Tales.

2018 - Selected to Appear in Fractured Fairy Tales, Volume 2

The Many Wives of Bluebeard, a sequel to The Princess and the Great Gold Dragon, was selected to appear with four other short plays at the Avenue Theatre in Rochester as part of the RACT Theatre Productions Fractured Fairy Tales, Volume 2.

I was a member of this theatre troupe for two years while attending CMU and served on the Board of Directors as the troupe's Technical Director. The group is made up of non-theater major students with a love for theater. Mostly, we produced student written plays. This is the theater group that originally produced Stephen Schwartz's Pippin.

Theater Guild in the Society for Creative Anachronisms

I have been a Journeyman Member of the Guild since 2011.

The Guild stages plays to be performed at Pennsic War each summer. Because the members are geographically dispersed across several continents, auditions are held the previous summer and rehearsals are done over the phone. The cast only rehearses together four or five mornings before the performance.
