Hello to all you wonderful friends and fans. This update is long overdue, and I really will try to be better at keeping you informed from now on! It's been a crazy year so far- with so many exciting projects in the works and on the horizon.
Our Pride and Prejudice writers are working hard to finetune the show and make it even more beautiful (impossible!) as they continue to take steps towards getting us on Broadway. Laura Osnes and I are still eagerly anticipating it's next stage of life- where we can play sisters once again. *smile*
I've just returned to Los Angeles from Las Vegas, where I was working on 4 new songs with my writing partner and friend, Steve Craig, to add to our upcoming self-produced album. The songs are great, and we're very happy with the vocals and production of them all. Prior to Vegas, I spent some time in a Los Angeles studio with the highly acclaimed guitarist, Tom Kolb, and my dad (who played bass for us!) working on another original tune. Please keep checking back with the Media section for the latest updates in all my music.
My last few weeks in NY, I spent a lot of time doing a cd photo shoot for Psychoteria's third, and latest album, "I Think I'll Just Stay Home" which will be released later this year. I'll be posting some of my favorites from the session soon, under Photos. To add to my busy schedule, I spent 3 days on a video shoot as the "spokes-girl" (kind of like Catherine Zeta-Jones is to T-Mobile!) for a new online business called, FanDistro. FanDistro is super cool- it links artists and fans together to help promote, distribute and sell the artists' music on line... with extra incentive for fans to help, since they are paid for every sale they generate (as is the artist, of course!). This is really groundbreaking and super cool- please check it out in my Links section. *grin*
Now for the biggest update of all...... I am going back to school for my MA Acting degree from the Guildford School of Acting at the University of Surrey, in the UK. Yep; I am coming back as Meryl Streep! *laugh* Getting my MA degree and training in England is something I've been wanting to do for a very long time, and with the present economic and even entertainment industry struggles, this is the perfect time. My agents at Abrams Artists are in full support of my decision, and we are all excited for the life experience and wonderful classical education I will receive on this new journey. I will most certainly be sending out updates over my year there, so please continue to check my site for new updates!
Wishing you all a peaceful, healthful and joyful end to a beautiful summer; here's to a productive fall!

Hey everyone!
Thanks so much to those of you who have made it out to see SAVED (some of you, several times!) It's wonderful having the support and saying hello to you after the show.
SAVED is going really well, as we head towards our official opening. We're still making changes (every day we learn new lines and lyrics and harmony parts, etc), and the excitement is really kicking in. Our audiences are responsive and wonderful, and it's so cool being part of something I believe in!
PLEASE come see it if haven't already and you're in the NY area. This weekend will be an especially fun one- as they are press performances before opening!
Much love to you all!

Hi everyone!
I'm stoked that you stopped by my site! This is a great way to keep posted on all the exciting
projects I'm working on and see fun things like
photos, etc. I absolutely love my job, and it's made
better by the support of all of you!
One of my favorite hobbies is writing songs with my
guitar. I have recorded a few of them, so please give
them a listen in my MEDIA section.
It's only a demo,
but I'd love to hear your thoughts on it....mostly
positive please please please * laugh *
Thank you, again, so much for stopping by. I
appreciate your love and support more than I can say!
