I am continuing to play therapist Dr. Matthews in the Super Therapy Series with Barley Political/The Key of Awesome. I also had the amazing opportunity to read the role of Lila in a new play called Denny and Lila by August Schulenburg the artistic director of Flux Theatre Ensemble as part of the MTWorks 2012 National Newborn Festival.

Whew! Its been a busy year! Some highlights over the last few months include playing Cinnamon in Costa Rehab with MTWorks, a new Adele video with the Key of Awesome, playing the recurring therapist, Dr. Matthews for the KOA gang in their Super Therapy Series, a couple of Eileen Fisher fashion informals, one year of marriage to husband Rob Benson, arrival of a new kitten- Romeo into our household, a grant from the Queens Arts Council awarded to On the Square Productions, and a partridge in a pear tree! Looking forward to what 2012 brings.
