Born and raised in Austin, Texas, Reilly has long been driven by a passion for the arts. She graduated summa cum laude from Otterbein University with a BA in Theatre and minors in Dance and Arts Administration before relocating to New York City. After a period of freelancing and a summer stock season, Reilly joined The Juilliard School as a full-time staff carpenter, where she fabricated theatrical scenery for approximately ten productions, utilizing her woodworking and MIG welding expertise.
Within a year, she was promoted to Assistant Technical Director. In her current role, Reilly contributes to project management, technical design, drafting, and cross-departmental coordination, often leading two to three productions per semester across drama, opera, and dance.
Reilly is currently laying the groundwork toward earning her ETCP Rigger – Theatre certification. Outside of work, she enjoys going to the movies, listening to music on long walks, and getting lost in a good dystopian fantasy novel.
