ABOUT THE FACILITATOR

Her first love is as a performer and she’s grateful for the opportunity to share back with a community that has helped shape the artist she is today. Her most recent theatrical credits are directing SFBATCO's, CUCKOO EDIBLE MAGIC by this year's SH Directing Workshop Facilitator, Reed Flores and Shotgun Player's production of THIRTY-SIX by Leah Nanako Winkler which won this year's Will Glickman Award. Michelle is a proud member of Shotgun Players’ artistic company and is currently an adjunct professor at University of San Francisco.
