"It was never success that I sought—but refuge in art" Eleonora Duse
I am a storyteller, no matter the medium. My journey began in theatre, riveted by the power of live performances. Did you know our hearts beat as one when witnessing a story on stage? With words and movement, I conduct the audience's heartbeats as they journey through my worlds.
As a woman of Asian descent, I've faced obstacles in this Euro-centric and Americanized world. I challenge you to re-think storytelling. I strive for experiences that weave Eastern and Western philosophies, breaking the linear and finding drama not only in action, but stillness too. Stories that remove you from reality, transporting you to a realm where a single word or gesture can slow down your heartbeat, making you stop in your seat, and feel what is underneath the banalities of the everyday.
Although I cannot escape my mind, I can at least help you escape yours.
