We’re a Fishy Family! 🐡🦈 🐢
So very thankful for my time in the Big Blue @orlandofamilystage . This story, the stunning score and engaging puppetry has meant so much to me from its beginning, and sharing this iteration of the show with audiences of all ages was nothing short of magical. I am blessed to create alongside friends and be pushed as an artist along the way. Thank you, Lord!
Many thanks to our stellar creative team @jeffreyrevels , @ericgelb , @llmansoori and @justin__hornback for the opportunity and making this entire process so special!

New music! 🎶⛵️ “I Sail” is now published for choirs everywhere, included in the inaugural release of the Herbert Washington Choral Series created with Santa Barbara Music Publishing!
I wrote this piece in 2022 for the New Works Rising competition created by Herbert Washington and the Phoenix Boys Choir (Phoenix, AZ). I was immediately excited by their proposed theme of “New Horizons” and launched into one of my first projects with self-written lyrics (pictured are portions of my first sketches). Even though it didn’t place in the competition, Herbert reached out with kind encouragement and asked if he could premiere it—of course, I said yes!
Almost four years later, I am deeply grateful to Herbert, the PBC, and Santa Barbara Music Publishing for the opportunity to share this music more widely with the world. This piece—and more importantly its message of community and hope—means so much to me and serves as a reminder of the endless possibilities we discover when we sail forward together.
“I’m bound along this shimm’ring glow.
From here below, I meet tomorrow’s dawn.
For this I know: there’s farther, still, to go!
Together we sail on!”
(take a listen-link in bio!)
So long, Charlie!
I count it a blessing to have shared this story and these characters once again at a time when we need to be reminded of the essentials of Joy, Hope, child-like Faith and Community. Within my almost two years in Orlando, I have only known Christmas here with this show and this tight-knit cast who have become dear friends. Thank you Jeff, Tara Jeanne and the fantastic team at Orlando Family Stage for the opportunity to return as this beloved Blockhead. 🥹💛
“Hail the Heav’n-born Prince of Peace!
Hail the Son of Righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings
Ris’n with healing in His wings
Mild He lays His glory by
Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the sons of earth
Born to give them second birth
Hark! The herald angels sing
‘Glory to the new-born King’”

“A Perfect Chord. One Perfect Moment. That’s all anyone has the right to ask for…We touched our dream.”
These Plaids made their final journey just a week ago, and what a special journey it was! For every bit of camaraderie and laughter shared onstage, there was plenty more backstage throughout this process. I am immensely grateful for these talented guys, the Winter Park Playhouse Family, and the opportunity to share the music, friendship, and joy this show captures! ❤️ 🎶
