Meet our new Development Director — Wesley Mouri!
Greetings everyone!
My name is Wesley Mouri, and I have to begin by saying, joining the #MuSquad as Development Director is a dream come true! Having worked with Theater Mu in different capacities for the past six years, it feels like such a privilege to step into this next stage of my professional career surrounded by my Mu family.
As a proud Japanese American raised here in the Midwest, fighting for equity and justice on and off the stage has been an ongoing passion of mine. I look forward to continuing the amazing work of the dedicated staff that has come before, as well as bringing a fresh energy and perspective into the mix. It truly feels like I've come home and I can't wait to see what we can accomplish together.
But WAIT! Maybe you have no idea who I am? So what better way to get to know me, than with some random trivia!?
