She has also written animation and game shows, and her ten-minute play The Last Laugh had its Los Angeles debut in January 2020, right before no one was allowed to sit inside a cramped theater anymore.

She has an M.A. in legislative affairs from George Washington University and a B.A. in journalism from the University of Oregon. She’s a member of both the WGA West and SAG-AFTRA.
