I was first recognized as Dueling Arts International Associate Instructor of Stage Combat in 2013, as a Full Instructor in 2018, and served as the organization's President from 2020-2022. My approach to stage combat puts story and actor safety first. I believe in developing a strong foundation of technique upon which performers can layer bold acting choices. I am available to instruct groups or individuals in six disciplines: Unarmed, Medieval Broadsword, Renaissance Rapier & Dagger, Transitional Single Rapier, Restoration Small Sword, and Quarterstaff.
