My THREE "Mini" STOOGES ;)...without a doubt they are the TRUE heroes in my world.
My two other real life heroes are Michael Dryden, my 11th Grade English teacher and Barbara Balsz, my acting coach back in 1996. Both of these people took the time to believe in me, encourage me and nurture my natural talents and abilities so that I could ultimately believe for myself what they saw in me all along...
