Sony went all out for the family-friendly premiere of its new (fully) animated film Smurfs: The Lost Village. I was honestly thrilled to join the block party and experience some of my childhood Saturday morning cartoons again. It also happened to be the 100th anniversary for Culver City itself, where Sony is headquartered. I believe…

Unexpected Pep Squad

Tuesday was a pretty typical day. Granted, I was operating a few hours less than normal for my own selfish reasons, but even Mom deserves a night out every now and then! Overall, I still felt pretty good. Maybe my leftover hairdo looked a bit disheveled or maybe my afternoon coffee was starting to wear off. Perhaps…

Pre-Oscar Party Celebrating Diversity

Fabulous Fabula Nebulae

I love getting mail. I had multiple pen pals throughout elementary and junior high school to feed my obsession with receiving mail. To this day, I volunteer with a kids literacy program so that I get more mail. This particular piece of mail contained an extra something special – handmade natural products from a loving…

The Art of Female Conversation

I had a great time hanging out with these fine folks on set today in Burbank!  We shot a satirical short film by award winning director Daniel Hankins on the interactions of women.  I played the Plain Jane of the group…and was probably the most comfortable!  It’s a pretty clever bit and I will be happy…

Be A Hero

Just about four years ago I looked into donating platelets but was disqualified during the pre-screening, being told that I should check back in a year.  The idea took the back burner and…we fast forward several years.  Last week, I received an email from SAG-AFTRA regarding their blood drive, which I was unable to attend. …
