An Unforgettable Night
The ceremony, held on October 22, 2024, at the Liberty Station Conference Center in Point Loma, was a truly memorable event. Sharing the evening with my family, fellow theater critics, and award-winning colleagues like Cassiopeia Guthrie and ErinMarie Reiter made it even more special.
Looking Ahead to 2025
Next year promises more interviews, more reviews, and, of course, more top-quality journalism. My love for communications, journalism, and theater continues to drive this incredible journey.
I am deeply grateful to the San Diego theater community, my husband, who tirelessly accompanies me to performances (sometimes up to four per week), and my hometown, Tijuana, for its constant support.
Thank you, San Diego, Theatre Community, and my husband, who endures going to see shows with me, sometimes even four a week!
