When I was 19 I Traveled to Nicaragua and befriended the children. I worked in the coffee fields and made friends and memories that would last a lifetime.

I was cast as Masha in a local production of The seagull, literally a week after doing Tartuffe the French comedy. Seen here is Me (Hi) and Nick Olson the director and founder of New Muses production, In Tacoma WA.

Burlesque between pregnancy(s) Oh yay?

Sitting in quarantine when I'd rather be putting on fishnets and double coding my eyes in the darkest eyeshadow I have at my disposal. (I suppose that goes for most things I do artistically, besides Shakespeare, old timey classics like Lysistrata, and the one time I was cast in Avenue Q) I miss the sound of the screen behind me and the audience applauding when the show was done. I miss a lot. But the thing that bothers me the most is the fact I'll be spending Christmas in quarantine away from my kid.

A photo of my understudy nailing the part!

The Rocky Horror Picture show at the bluemouse theatre before covid. This was during a rehearsal. I had to step in as an understudy as one of my actors were running late.
