My latest for @AmericanTheatre! I had such an incredible time getting to talk to this team and dive into the journey of this co-production of TEENAGE DICK — please take a read!

i hate journalism halloween what do you mean you’re writing directly in the cms


wandering out of the office and talking to people for man on the streets has become one of my favorite pastimes. here's today's adventure from the line outside kamala harris' rally: washingtonian.com/2024/10/29/mee…


also i promise after today i won't feel the need to share every single thing i'm doing, but of course my first washingtonian blog post-style story is about dogs

It’s doggy paddle time. 🐶💦 DC’s annual “Doggie Day Swim” is back! This Saturday, September 7 from 11 AM to 4 PM, you can take your furry friend to four outdoor pools in Georgetown, Petworth, Fort Dupont, and Langdon. washingtonian.com/2024/09/05/bri…



(there's also this!) first piece for @3viewstheater and first review of a musical in a really long time. i could not let the DC premiere of Soft Power go by without trying to have a chance to reflect on it like this, so glad to add to the conversation about this incredible piece

This week we’ve got reflections on SOFT POWER at @sigtheatre and the legacy of Asian American musical theater from @nathanpugh_3 and @daniellai34! Read their pieces now! Nathan’s is reprinted with permission from @dctheaterarts 📸: Daniel Rader 🔗3viewstheater.com/bonus-material…

remember how everyone loves to talk about the “modern” phenomenon of casting hot seymours

In September 1989, Bruce Willis hosted SNL. During his monologue he broke into a song and played the harmonica. The following week, Rick Moranis hosted and this was how he began his monologue. Legend.

I close all my tabs and within hours I have almost just as many tabs open. I don't even remember opening them. I'm like a beaver instinctually building a dam

i love you very much. forever and ever. remember to be kind. treat each other with patience and empathy. remember that you are loved unconditionally, no matter your mistakes, no matter your misunderstandings. you deserve it. you deserve love. you deserve to live without fear. x


Me: *hasn’t been on Twitter for like 5 months* Also me: *re-emerges for #AAJA23 & contemplates live tweeting sessions before remembering that live tweeting is tiring* Anyway hit up your local journalism-adjacent theatre PR girl / freelancer rejuvenating herself as a writer again


this tweet hurts

Being a writer is cool because it’s like yes, this is my passion but also I will actively avoid doing it

The @nytimes published the essay I wrote about the three mass shooters at Laguna Woods, Monterey Park and Half Moon Bay—Asian men who took Asian lives using the most American of killing instruments: guns. Here it is as a gift. Please share it if you can. nytimes.com/2023/01/28/opi…

As promised, here are Ten New Year’s Resolutions for Editors. They're resolutions you really can keep. Resolution for Editors No. 1: To read every word of a draft before making changes. (Yes, this is hard. But if time permits, a good practice.)

Using language like “squint-inducing” in reviewing @KPOPBroadway, the only wholly original new show on Broadway with 18 Broadway debuts and an almost-all Asian cast. Ladies and gentlemen, Jesse Green of the @nytimes 👏🏼👏🏼
