After graduating magna cum laude with a BA in Philosophy (of all things) from ASU, I spent some time working as an actress and improviser in Minnesota's Twin Cities. Three midwest winters were all this Arizona native could handle, though, so I moved to LA to pursue my passion for writing, acting, and improvising. I lived in Miracle Mile and the SFV, met my husband auditioning for the Jimmy Kimmel Live Show, had a baby girl, and brought her back to Philadelphia to raise her.
I'm earning a Feature Film Writing Certificate through UCLA's Extension program online, and working on a new feature horror/thriller with the help of my mentor.
Unique traits: I can touch my tongue to my nose.
