As an opera librettist, I’ve written work that has been performed by the Chicago Opera Theatre, Portland Opera, HALO, Washington National Opera, Lexington Philharmonic, and more. My first opera, 2024’s The Weight of Light, was a collaboration with Gillian Rae Perry. My re-written version of My Country Tis of Thee was used for President Biden’s inauguration in 2021. An opera collaboration with Shawn Okpebhlo, Two Black Churches, was included on Will Liverman’s GRAMMY nominated Dreams of a New Day.
