Manage episode 444158020 series 3564673
There are so many other talented, dedicated, and caring folks out here supporting everyone who brings a production to life. And this conversation is actually the very first time I met Alexa Smith! She’s had a very similar journey to me with acting, motherhood, and EDI consulting. Alexa shares about her early acting career, what led her to become a consultant, and (possibly my favorite topic) how she’s navigated motherhood in the theater industry. Get ready for an amazing conversation, theater friends!
In this episode, you will:
- Discover how Alexa came to be an EDI consultant in the arts.
- Uncover how Alexa navigated those early days of motherhood and acting.
- Learn what a day in the life at The Public is like for Alexa.
