About Me

I'm a trained dancer and actress who got into filmmaking in 1997, when I starred in and produced Mike Watt's short film "Tenants". Later, I co-created the company Happy Cloud Pictures with Mike and Bill Homan, and we went on to produce "The Resurrection Game", in which I co-star as "Sister Bliss" - a "marriage-counseling, dominatrix, zombie-killing nun".In 2002 I co-starred in and directed my first short, "Were-Grrl", and later that year, my first feature, "Severe Injuries", which were both released on DVD through Sub Rosa. This year saw the release of A Feast of Flesh, the Happy Cloud Picture version of the vampire mythology and the filming of the second feature that I directed, Splatter Movie: The Director's Cut .
I also have a column in the Genre Magazine, Sirens of Cinema. The premier magazine promoting strong and sexy women of film and television.
I travel quite a bit throughout the year promoting my films and meeting fans at conventions and other appearances. Make sure to stop by and say hello.
Upcoming Appearances- North Coast Comicon May 1, 2008
