Audio Description
As an audio describer, I bring the visual world of live performance to life for blind and low vision audiences. Through detailed, thoughtful narration, I provide real-time descriptions of costumes, movement, settings, and stage action—always with the goal of honoring the artistry of the production while ensuring equal access to the experience. With a collegiate and professional background in theatre, I approach each show with care, collaboration, and a deep respect for both the performers and the audience.
