(I know I am not my career, however, we are what we do, aren’t we? Here’s a partial bio/resume.)
After graduating from Louisiana State University with a B.A. degree in Creative Writing, I moved to Los Angeles, where I have worked primarily in Television Post-Production.
1990-1993: I first worked as an aupair for my aunt and uncle, babysitting my cousin (four nights a week babysitting in exchange for rent).. This afforded me time to figure out what I would be doing after college (I took acting classes, worked at ICM Agency in the mailroom, worked as set P.A. on the feature Single White Female, worked in Post-production on an A&E WWII series, and then in Post on another feature film).
1993-1997: While completing the acting training program at the Joanne Baron/D.W. Brown Studio, I worked as a taxi-driver, waiter, and breakfast caterer.
1998-1999: So, that I could gain entrance into the Screen Actor’s Guild, I worked as a movie extra.
2000-2005. After working as an office assistant to a reasonably unsuccessful movie producer, I found myself working in post-production, as a production assistant, as an assistant editor and free-lancing as an editor. While free-lancing as an editor, I spent most of my free time learning photography and how to skateboard, and writing.
I returned to acting classes in 2005-2007 at Improv Olympic, working through their program up to level five.
2007-present: I have been working again in post-production as an assistant, all the while pursuing acting in commercials (I have an agent and have been getting out on auditions. I recently returned to IO, and hope to complete the program).
All the while, through the years, I have maintained a regular practice of playing the guitar and singing songwriting.
