ABOUT ME
Hey there! My name is Grace, (she/her) and I'm happy you're here!
I am a proud queer woman and an autistic self-advocate with a passion for arts accessibility. I hope to spread awareness and acceptance through my favorite forms of self-expression... performing and writing! I am studying at The Theatre School at DePaul University, and anticipate graduating in Summer 2025 with my BFA in Playwriting, and a Certification in Disability Studies.
I have been active in the arts since age nine. I first started out with improv, and later moved on to community theatre. Some of my favorite musical theatre roles I've played are the title role in Carrie and Jo March in Little Women, as well as originating a role in a new musical still in development.
​
I've been a writer my whole life, but in Summer 2024, I received my first playwriting commission and had the honor of writing The Adventures of Spectrum Sparks for CenterStage Theatre Works. The play premiered in Frisco, TX in July 2024, and while it is for EVERYONE, was written with a neurodivergent/autistic young audience in mind. ​

I'm so glad you decided to check out my website. I can't wait to get to know each other better!
