Super Roommates began filming on Friday the 13th of March. It was amidst a snowstorm, and there was an accident on Deerfoot, so I arrived on set after pretty much all my cast & crew, but our location still wasn't available to us until fifteen minutes after our call time so it wasn't bad. Yet. … Continue reading Production Day 1: Friday the 13th
Ming’s Dynasty
Way back in December, I got cast in my first union role as Kelli in Ming's Dynasty. I got to be on set for two days for this project and it was so much fun! The project itself is also super funny and creative. ...and it's out now! If you're in Canada, you can watch … Continue reading Ming’s Dynasty
An Acting Weekend
I've had a busy weekend. First of all, you should know I got a job. It's a part-time thing and it came in the nick of time, according to my bank account. I don't know what this means for the acting thing. At first I thought it meant I'd just have to quit acting, since … Continue reading An Acting Weekend
A Good Kind of Busy?
I was going to quit acting in November. Well, I was supposed to quit this time last year. If you remember, in 2017 I quit my job for unrelated reasons and decided that, while I was young and free of much responsibility, I would go after my dream of being an actress...for one year. After … Continue reading A Good Kind of Busy?
For Now
Last week Monday, I went to a theatre audition. I'll spare you the suspense—I didn't get it. But I ran into a few people I'd gotten to know since joining the industry, and one of them said to me, "I see you in, like, everything." This was surprising, and really nice for me to hear. … Continue reading For Now
Nearly Nine Years
When I approached the counter of the Starbucks I'm currently writing this from, the barista, Michelle, greeted me by name. This Starbucks is across the city from where I live, so this was slightly concerning. However, it's five minutes from Heritage Park where I've been going to rehearsal five times a week for the last … Continue reading Nearly Nine Years
Theatre or Film?
When people find out I'm an actor, often the first question they ask is "Film or theatre?" I've always answered film because that's been what I wanted to do since I first wanted to act, and more recently screen acting is the only kind I do. But like many actors, I got my start in … Continue reading Theatre or Film?
Summer’s Monster
In November last year, I was lucky enough to play Hanna in Snowshoe & Monster, a webseries pilot for Telus Storyhive. We had three days and $10K to make the best pilot we could. In February, the finished Snowshoe & Monster pilot came out and was one of two pilots chosen to make five more episodes … Continue reading Summer’s Monster

The Start
2018 has been interesting in a good way. As with nearly every year, 2018 started with parties. Then there were a few days of chilling and getting organized in preparation for the upcoming year. On the fifth things started to kick back into gear when my production partner Ania and I finished the final version … Continue reading The Start
