About me

Hi, I'm Hillary! I'm an American living and creating in Dublin. I first came to Dublin in 2014 after completing my B.A. in French Studies and Creative Writing at Sewanee: The University of the South. After traveling Europe and returning briefly to Tennessee, I made my way back to Dublin to complete my M.A. in Drama and Performance Studies at University College Dublin where I graduated with honors. For the last two years I've been working in the Dublin theatre scene as a jane-of-all-trades, and for the last 18 months have been working as Creative Producer and Company Manager for The Corps Ensemble. CURIOSITY: I believe in curiously exploring and questioning every aspect of a production from dramaturgy to direction to design. CREATIVITY: I focus my energy on finding creative, out-of-the-box solutions to any and every problem that may present itself. COLLABORATION: I believe the centre of any successful production is a tight-knit team working in synchronicity towards the same goals. Guided by these principles, I aim to bring clarity and high-calibre production value to each and every one of my projects.
