My love for the weird began when I was young. My aunts’ bffs would turn the sound down on the TV and improv outrageous dialogue. Dry sitcoms became hotbeds of scandal. Every scene was filled with wild fantasy, lots of sex and everyone was gay. I didn’t understand every joke but I was thrilled to be included. This love of community and the absurd brought me to Whatthehelm. When I’m not cohosting the absurd, you’ll find me at Union Wellness, a wellness space I cofounded. In my free time, I like to create potions from foraged finds, hang out with friends and of course, read lots of books.

I grew up in a hyper religious missionary family, so yeah I experienced some pretty weird shit. I now channels that into the best of what I took from it, community building, radical hope and snake handling (jk).I’ve been a professional actor, voiceover talent and producer for 18 years and definitely experienced some more cool weird shit! Acting has been a powerful tool for empathy and alternative forms of communication. I love connection, mutuall inspiration and provoking thought.In my downtime you'll find me getting lost in a book, cooking for friends, writing and reading erotica or poetry, playing D&D, dog snuggling, hanging out with my adult kids, engaging in engrossing conversation and holding hands.I believe in the power of community and the vitality of inclusion. I'm a recent transplant to Seattle and am loving making new friends here. Wanna hang out?
