Communications – Theatre Major
Millerstown, PA

“What’s the point of theatre or writing or making art if I don’t have the ‘why’? My professors are faithful in reminding me that the ‘why’ is glorifying God. I will be able to forever carry that with me long after my manuscript gets dusty and my memorized monologue is forgotten.”
