About me

Gender Female
Industry Education
Occupation Teaching Artist
Location Seattle, WA, United States
Introduction A curly-haired wise woman in training. I decided a while back that I want to live my life to these truths: I am a Storyteller, I am a Treasure Finder, I am a Healer, I am an Adventurer. I got my BFA in Theatre Performance, and have been professionally acting in Seattle since 2013. I've worked in Early Childhood Education for 3 years, and plan to head into massage therapy once I get back from my Grand European Adventure.
Interests Puppetry, swing dance, people, the cosmos, words, music, British movies/books/tv shows, drinking tea, making art, watching documentaries
Favorite Movies My movie selections tend to be cheesy and non-mainstream (Joe Verses the Volcano), foreign (Amelie), odd (Momento, Leon the Professional), and often animated ( Chicken Run). I <3 documentaries that don't take themselves too seriously (Pucker Up- it's about a national whistling competition).
Favorite Music Iron and Wine, Janelle Monae, Moby, Royksopp, The Beatles, U2, Bat for Lashes, Sarah Mclachlan, Beth Orton, The Cranberries, Tori Amos, Guster, Adele, old blues music...it goes on and on...
Favorite Books Haroun and the Sea of Stories, The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, Terry Pratchett's Disk World Series, Dandelion Wine, The Moor's Last Sigh, Yes Man, Edna St. Vincent Millay poetry...
