In his role he serves the campus community by fostering opportunities for education, discussion, and dialogue around identity that looks to mitigate bias and harm.

Additionally, he wows audiences as a professional actor, singer, and dancer in musical theater throughout the Philadelphia and Tristate area.

The sun has set. It’s even later than Elmo Late Night. Benjamin Franklin has dried, the red LEDs of Harrison College House have turned off, the children have left Smoke’s, and your professor is… home? Nothing special goes on at this hour of the night, right? Wrong. Few know who lurks in the shadows of Penn’s Campus at night, right under our noses. Who are these agents of mischief and secrecy? Super spies! A group of students (OR ARE THEY?!?!) have infiltrated the Penn Museum to steal a top-secret document from the underground safe. Rest assured that when confronting danger, these spies are only shaken, not stirred. Will a night at the Penn Museum go by without a hitch, or will they ruin the greatest heist Penn has ever seen? How can we turn this two-way mirror into a three-way mirror? Is the vault as insecure as me? Spy for yourself in Mask and Wig’s 2024 Fall Show, Legally Bond!
