One thing to keep in mind with consistency is that it is also important to take breaks where needed. Consistency does not mean that working towards my goals needs to be prioritized over my own mental health. Staying consistent means that you are always working to be the best you can be.

A big thing that excites me and inspires me right now is the idea of stoicism. It adopts the idea that one does not fear pain, emotional or physical, but instead they fear letting themselves down. It really helps me as an artist to really put my all into my work even if there are others who don't agree with my creative decisions.

This is a book series that has plenty of themes of stoicism. It constantly deals with the idea that no matter what hardships one might face, you must endure and struggle to keep going.

Communication is incredibly important part of performance as a collaborative practice. Whether you are working as an actor, stage manager, designer, playwright, director or any other kind of artist, your job would not be possible without clear communication with your peers. Poor communication is without a doubt a recipe for disaster.

In my professional career I see myself being a professional Lighting Designer on Broadway. My goal is to be able to do something I am passionate about professionally and comfortably. I have always had a lot of fun working in theatrical design and I hope to make enough money to make it big.

I am heavily influenced by my peers who also work in Stage Lighting. I consistently feel as if I have more to learn an I value the knowledge of my peers. Theatre is a profession that relies heavily on the idea of trial by fire, so by allowing myself to be influenced by my peers I can learn quite a lot.

While working on this play last semester, I was able to learn quite a lot after a lot of help from my coworkers.

Another way I am influenced is by the projects of other theatre companies. Watching different shows as well as different concerts. By going to UTNT every semester I am shown how different people make the unique creative choices in regards to performance.

Another thing that really inspires me is the very simplistic lessons about kindness. For example, the significance of companionship and being the best version of oneself are very simple lessons but ones that are easily forgotten with time.

This was a show I had to sacrifice, due to over booking myself. By joining this show I realized it was just too much for me to stay consistent with.

This book really helps to highlight the simplistic lessons of kindness. It has been adapted to a short film and I would highly recommend the watch.

As the Technical Director for this show, there were many people I had to communicate with.

Here is the first show I saw on Broadway. After watching that I really found a passion for stagecraft and lighting.

Consistency is very important to my work ethic. With a lot of theatrical positions relying on the constant job hunt, it reminds important to make sure that you are consistently looking for new jobs and opportunities. With that there's also the importance of consistent improvement. Being able to constantly find jobs that are equal or better than the last.

As a designer and technician it is vital that I communicate. As a designer I have to talk with the director to ensure that we have a similar vision for the project. I also need to communicate with the head electrician to make sure that I am staying within the budget or pulling things we actually have from stock.

For the past year, I have been working consistently with the ACME crew at Texas Performing Arts. This job as been a consistent way to build my resume.

This is an illustration of the first performance for The Tales Of Hoffman. This semester, as a production electrician, I will need to communicate with a lot of people.

Another goal I have for myself involves Lighting Design here at UT. I would like to be the resident Lighting Designer for the studio productions. In order to do this and do it properly I need to more than adequately assistant design two shows and be a lead designer for Fall For Dance 2023. This way I can show off and improve my skill on a more professional level.
