(theater-maker; conceptual artist; writer / b. 1985)
Trained in Drama and Chinese, I’ve worked primarily in theater since moving to NYC in 2007, before expanding into other and weirder media, including web and performance art. I have written & performed with Broken Box Mime Theater, an award-winning physical theater troupe based in New York since 2011.
I’m also founder of The KRNL, a simple open-source religion, and sole proprietor of Transcribblers, a boutique audio-and-video transcription firm specializing in high-quality transcription for a variety of production, research, and art institutions. I organize with NYC-DSA, Tenant Union Flatbush, and others, and am a proud member of the Industrial Workers of the World.
