Acting/Talent Experience:
I have been acting since childhood. I have only done a few acting jobs where I actually received compensation. I have a full resume of acting jobs available upon request. My most recent adventure was as a guest host on the Dave Ryan in the Morning Show (KDWB-Minneapolis) several times.
Am I affiliated with unions?:
No
A major event in my life was:
In 2006, I went through a very challenging layoff and painful divorce. During that time I realized how strong I really am and what my self worth really was at the time. I decided after that hard period in my life that I was not going to waste any more time on things that cannot and will not make me happy. From that point on "Happiness" became my mantra.
The accomplishment I am most proud of:
I recently made the finals in a 4 month search for a top 40 new radio station DJ in Minneapolis. There were thousands of applicants. I ultimately lost the spot to a professional DJ out of Reno, NV. I am very proud of this accomplished and proved to myself that I am more than just the average Jane!
An embarrassing story about me was:
I really cannot think of a specific moment because, quite frankly, it's hard to embarrass me. I am pretty much an open book!
My favorite Movie:
The Graduate
My favorite TV Show:
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
My best Physical Trait is:
Eyes
Topics off limit to me at a party are:
Nothing! I can and will talk about pretty much anything! We may not have the same opinions on topics, but it doesn't stop me from having a friendly open discussion about various things.
Do I have tattoos or piercings:
I only have single pierced ears.
The weirdest thing about me is:
My whole being. I am just a weird person, aren't all actors?
My friends would say my best qualities are:
I'm loyal and caring. I also am the entertainer in the group. Friends usually invite me out so keep the party moving.
My friends would say my worst qualities are:
I let people walk all of over me too often. I am a pleaser and don't like to hurt people's feelings so I often end up taking on the brunt of one's problems in order to avoid making them feel uncomfortable.
The personality traits I most like about myself are:
I am an artistic old-soul who always searches for the good in everything. I am upbeat and funny and have a dry, witty sense of humor. I like that I can always make people laugh and feel comfortable around people I've never met.
The personality traits I like least about myself are:
I am too non-confrontational. I don't like "stirring the pot" - it makes me feel bad. I sometimes wish I was a little more aggressive at times without feeling guilt about it after.
