About
I am primarily an actress who has been working in the Twin Cities area for over twenty years. Acting has always been my number one passion. I love developing complex characters in every genre. About six years ago I noticed opportunities were drying up for leading and principle roles for women in my age group. This inspired me to began writing and producing my own shorts, starring at least one middle-aged woman. My goal is to create unique, memorable characters in a wide range of genres to inspire others to rethink the limited roles we are taught to believe aging women are bound to.
