Technical Experience::

I do hand sewing and am not afraid to crawl through closets, so I've aided the costumer on most shows I've been in.

Commercial Experience::

Some local stuff.

Misc. Talents::

I can multi-task. Once I had my mother on the main phone, my office on the cell, a salesman at the door, five small boys all asking me questions and a cat that was trying to escape into the street. I completed all the jobs and the before I closed the door on the salesman he said "Lady, I've never seen anyone do so many things at the sames time". I told him "Don't mess with a mom."

Training::

Money was an issue in my childhood, so I didn't take any private lessons until I was 16. I started with voice and then piano and finally dance when I was in my 20's. However it is amazing how much you can learn if you pay attention and use the resources in school and in community theater.

Awards::

2006 Encore for Best Cameo. There are no small parts. I have other Encores and Civvy's.
