~Appearing in an episode of "Cashing In".
~Remounting "No Offense...." from last year's Fem Fest this fall.

After aspiring to become an actor in Winnipeg for a few years, I ventured forth to Vancouver, where I struggled for 10 years; After surviving that I came back to Winnipeg to lick my wounds and resume a "career" out here, slaving away at my day job, asking people if they want their meals "Biggie-sized". I've done the Fringe Festival circuit ["Sleeping Beauty Cabaret", "There iz no peace, onlee love", "Shel Shocked", and "Secrets of My Wanton's Love"], Worked with Hope McIntyre's Theatre Company "Sarasvati Productions" ["The International Women's Week Cabaret", "Gender Play" & "Stories from Brown Girl Jouvay" for Fem Fest], performed children's theatre for Fantasy Theatre for Children ["Tales from Far Away", "The Velveteen Rabbit" & "The Snow Queen"] and supported many film productions in Winnipeg and Vancouver as a background performer ["The LookOut", "Blue State", "The Good Life", "Dark Angel",   episodes of "Da Vinci's Inquest", "Cold Squad" and "Category 6 & 7", etc]. I've left the grease-pit and am now working at Pier 1 Imports, but you ain't getting any deals from me on furniture!
