World Theatre Day: Re-Elected to the ISTA Board of Trustees

· 1 min read

Just last week, I was deeply honoured to be re-elected to serve another four years as a trustee on the board of ISTA - Global Learning Through the Arts. It is a privilege to continue advocating for the power of theatre alongside such an inspiring community and learning so much from my fellow trustees and the entire ISTA team.

Over the years, my love for theatre has grown into a career where I now get to blend my passions every day — my work as a facilitator and trainer allows me to build the bridge between theatre, education, and the vital task of helping young learners grow into not just confident individuals, but globally-minded, kind, and thoughtful citizens.

Through theatre, I have witnessed young people find their voice, take creative risks, collaborate meaningfully, and discover new ways of seeing the world. And, in turn, I’ve been gifted with moments of pure joy, inspiration, and a deep sense of purpose. Truly a gift!
