She’s a woman of mystery!

Check out my post about my most recent show – Ms. Holmes and Ms. Watson Apt. 2B, at St. Croix Festival Theatre! I had a great time playing Joan Watson, the nuerotic and caring ex-doctor in this fast paced mystery.

She’s writing poetry!

I was recently a guest writer for the column Poetry from Daily Life by David Harrison. I write about the role that poetry holds in my life and what has been inspiring me in this season of my life, including an original summer poem by yours truly!

Poetry from Daily Life: A reminder that ‘art begets art begets art’

She also wants to take your photo!

FAQs

What is your favorite color?

I can’t lie, I’m experiencing a bit of a shift in my favorite color at the moment. I have been a long time lover of a beautiful Burnt Orange, but a Vibrant Red has been sneaking its way into my heart. Some mixed feelings about letting Burnt Orange go completely, so they are currently sharing the number one spot.

You got eyebrows?

Sometimes!

What else do you get up to, girl?

Depends on the day! You’ll often catch me at a coffeeshop, just as often at a table as I am behind the espresso machine. I love spending time with my friends, picking up a new book, or crafting a new playlist. More than anything I love consuming stories and I’m always itching to talk about the latest show or film I’ve seen!

But I thought I just asked this question?

And you did indeed. Professionally, I am an actor, mover, and singer, but also am an artist of a few other mediums! I am a photographer who specializes in headshot photography – you can check out my work under the “Photography” tab. I am a graphic designer, sound designer, and this year am making my first venture into lighting design (which I am very excited for). If you have any interest or questions about my other work, please reach out 🙂
