They have a diverse experience in many artistic avenues: teaching art education, performing on the stage, and working behind the writing desk and the camera. Like their name, they look to find the joy and happiness in the world while also acknowledging its darkness. Upcoming projects include a horror comedy film 🎥 “Death Fest 3000” and a one person show 🎭.

🎤 Speaker #2: Nic Huchtmeier
