Mariel Matero


Full Bio
I am artist in NYC but a New England girl through and through. I am the Communications Director for Theatre68 (NY), a wonderful bi-coastal community of artists and I'm also a proud member of Nylon Fusion Theatre Company. I left my heart on a dance floor in the 90's and try to find it frequently by taking over jukeboxes and Spotify playlists at parties.

I love to volunteer with NYC youth and am a writing mentor for Young Storytellers and a member of the Madison Council for the Madison Square Boys & Girls Club.
