Though Ariel Lacey currently attends graduate school at Ohio University studying stage properties, she most recently held the scene shop supervisor position for Opera San Jose. In the past, she has been honored to work for incredible companies such as Williamstown Theatre Festival, Paper Mache Monkey and the Atlantic Theatre Company. In 2014, Ariel graduated from New York University with a degree in scenic design and technical direction. From her first steps into theatre in high school, she built a love for collaboration and the incredible creative capabilities of the stage.

In her negligible free time, Ariel explores her interests in puppetry and cosplay or takes long hikes with her dog. She also reads avidly – mostly fiction and (occasionally) science fiction – and harbors a passion for board games.
