Something New
Confession: This post is going to be a little different tonight. As you know, I am on set all week for a commercial campaign. And for those who have never been in or around the acting biz, days on set are lonnnnggg. We’re talking 12 hour days. Add on to that a 45 minute commute […]

Battling Insecurity
Do you ever just feel….embarrassingly out of place? Do you ever walk into a room and feel as though you’ve got, like, your skirt tucked into your underwear, or like you have a big, unsightly growth on your chin? I had one of those experiences last week. I had an audition for this big beauty […]

If you want your minds blown, give them a watch…I included the links. Let me begin by saying, I’m not here to bash anyone’s beliefs. I am all for respect and inclusivity. But I was […]

Like a Woman Scorned…
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. This post tonight, is being served with a side of indignation. Because I am angry. I hesitate to post this, because, well…you’ll see. But I need to vent.

Set on Fire
So my neighbor is smoking weed. And I’m tellin’ ya…this end of the hallway positively reeks. I swear, walk from here to the elevator and you’re going to be baked by approximation. ANYWHO. If my thoughts seem…well…all over the place…now you know why. 😉 Pentacost Sunday. It was yesterday, in case you missed it. The infamous “Tongues […]

Dear Kathy Griffin…
Being a millennial New Yorker and actor, I’d like to think I’ve got pretty thick skin. Getting rejected is par for the course in the entertainment industry. The city doesn’t do you any favors — just try battling the check out lines at Whole Foods at 3pm on a Sunday. Heck, even the squirrels seems […]
