A Performer is born....

“The eyes are the window to your soul.” -William Shakespeare
In August 2000 (at Age 30) I went to see an ophthalmologist for some flashes I was seeing and was immediately scheduled for surgery to repair a Detached Retina. I have had multiple surgeries for retina tears over the years since then. It is a daily challenge for me to watch and preserve my vision (which is currently very good) and hopefully prevent any future issues. This is a challenge, but I deal with it as I do all adversity…with humor…thank God for that. I also like to think that having had many challenges in my life builds depth of character and with these life experiences I only become a stronger, richer, more colorful actor (AND HUMAN) in the process.
These are a few of my favorite things (cue Julie Andrews)...
Actor, Voice Talent, Writer, Filmmaker, Health Enthusiast, Dancer, Creative Professional, Communicator, Christian…
Enjoys: all of the above and desktop publishing, advertising, interior design, home organizing and minimalism, theater (especially musicals), antiques and anything retro, dance (all kinds) Latin, Ballroom…love the Foxtrot and Swing and even a good old fashioned Robot.
Actors who inspire me: Toni Colette, Dianne Wiest, Christopher Plummer, Alan Rickman
The person I most look up to in the universe: my Dad.
“Barns burnt down, now I can see the moon...” -Mizuta Masahide
In 1999 at 2am, my husband and I awoke to smoke coming under our apartment door and alarms going off. We rushed out of the burning building just in time and watched as our entire lives burned to the ground. I cannot tell you what a surreal life experience that was…but it changes you, and it also awakens what we all already know on some level:
“THINGS” have no meaning, you can’t take it with you…Life is about PEOPLE we LOVE and MOMENTS we EXPERIENCE… CHERISH THEM.
