TRIFLES

"The world is full of obvious things which nobody by chance ever observes."

-Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

As far back as I can remember, I have always been fascinated by the Sherlock Holmes stories. The Great Detective's ability to solve the most baffling crimes based on his observation of the smallest, most seemingly insignificant details taught me at an early age that oftentimes trifles are the most important things in this world.

As a Writer, I strive to create stories that hinge on details, always keeping the reader on their toes and as an Actor, I seek to represent truth through the smallest details.

I invite you to investigate this website on your own and discover the importance of trifles in print, on the stage, and everywhere else.
