Having worked with companies such as InterAct Theatre Company and PlayPenn, Liv is devoted to the production and development of new works that grapple with difficult truths while also using radical empathy to uplift our fellow underdogs.

When she's not doing theatre stuff, she can be found writing short scripts for the multi-million subscriber YouTube channel, GameToons.
