Actor
Alix is a versatile actor who has a penchant for playing formidable yet flawed human beings. Being human is a convoluted thing and, as artists, we gift so much by leaning into complexity. The world craves to feel understood and offered witness. And hope. Complexity, witness, and hope.

Director
Presently, Alix is drawn toward investigating complexity, relationality, porousness and ephemerality, and humanity’s prismatic tension related to notions of rebirth and reachings toward beauty.
Alix is interested in the visceral, the uneasy, the ecstatic, and the deep dives of oceanic story-building.
Facilitator/Teacher
Alix facilitates workshops in movement, impulse, mind/body, intimacy for the actor, embodied text, Laban, mask work, contemporary and Shakespeare performance.
Writer/Creator
Alix is currently developing several new projects for theatre, film, and other live events.
