Well hello there! My name is Ms. Hildebrand and I will be your Theatre and Speech teacher this year! This is my first year in education and I cannot wait to get started!

I grew up with theatre all around me and always knew I wanted to be apart of it somehow. With my new theatre degree and many years of professional stage directing in my back pocket, 2020 hit young adult Ms. Hildebrand very hard. And when there was hardly any theatre in my life, I took that time to reflect on how I felt. I realized I wasn't missing being on the stage, but I missed advocating for it. I missed teaching people the importance of theatre and how it can help with communication skills, confidence, critical thinking, and so much more.

I promise to advocate for my students in a safe and non-judgemental environment.

Outside of school, I am working on getting certified in intimacy choreography where I can continue my philosophy of making the stage a safe place for everyone. (Ask me more about it and I would love to tell you!) I also love practicing yoga, reading and writing in small coffee shops, and wishing it was Halloween.
