I have had a sampling of roles in the entertainment field throughout the decades(!), from actor to catering/craft services to writer. Being in front of the camera has been helpful in crafting natural dialogue and I am passionate about creating choice roles for women, particularly those in their 40s and beyond.
A diverse personal history - model/actor, chef, mom to a child with autism, mental health counselor - has given me insight into multiple facets of the human condition, which I use to bring depth to my characters and stories.
