Ciera believes theatre is a holy ground where there is room for hope, magic, and explosive creation. Naturally, she is committed to developing new works. As a mixed race artist she often feels she lives outside of definite terms and gravitates towards genre bending and convention breaking work. In that, she seeks scripts that are haunting, hopeful, a little magical, sometimes western, and tackle the human condition. She wants to tell campfire stories of all kinds and remind audiences they are alive.

She is also the miller 1/2 of the theatrical duo miller & harlow. The pair are 2023 Jonathan Larson Grant Honorable Mentions, EdFringers and were co writers on The Oyster Radio Hour hosted by Susan Sarandon, with Amber Iman and Amber Gray as vocalists. Recently she worked as Assistant Director for the Hadestown 2nd National Tour, directed by Keenan Tyler Oliphant. She looks forward to continuing as Associate Director this fall.

In rehearsal and in life she makes it a priority to be present, curious, and kind.

You can usually find her loitering at her local bookstore, co-working with her fiercely fantastic friends, or out for a swim.
