Tina is no stranger to the world of directing. She made her directorial debut with last season’s opener, Exit Who?, which was met with great enthusiasm and marked the beginning of her journey as a stage director. However, Tina's involvement with Okeechobee Community Theatre (OCT) goes back much further. For the past 21 years, she has been an active and dedicated member of the OCT family, contributing in various capacities both on and off stage.

Her passion for the performing arts and commitment to the community have earned her a position on the OCT Board of Trustees, where she plays an important role in shaping the organization’s vision and supporting its ongoing growth. Beyond the stage, Tina has a love for lifelong learning. She enjoys studying new languages and finds joy in solving puzzles of all kinds, from logic challenges to jigsaw puzzles.

Tina shares her life with her supportive husband, Tim, and together they are the proud parents of four children. Her family often cheers her on from the audience, and their encouragement continues to inspire her work in community theatre.
