I’m terrified of singing in public—sad, considering I have a whole a** BFA in Musical Theatre Performance—but I’d love to perform in musicals again one day.

What’s the best advice you’ve ever received? When you’re short on time, slow down.

What does your ideal day off look like?

Blissfully boring and bra-less with my husband, Dan, and dog, Sagan. We’d go to Flour Bakery, the dog park, and an estate sale or three (we LOVE estate sales).

Have you ever encountered a ghost? Only once. She was a super friendly ghost in my apartment my sophomore year of college!

Who’s your most surprising celebrity crush? Cherry Jones.

17

What’s your favorite line from Bad Cinderella?

“I’m Cinderella, you’re the Godmother, let’s get the show on the road!”

18

Where would you go on a dream vacation? The Amalfi Coast.

Give us your hottest take. In print? No way. My warm take is that it’s not a real hot take if you’re comfortable putting it in writing.

What song do you have on repeat right now?

“Are You Scared Of Me Yet?" by Daisy Grenade. Honestly, I have their whole EP Cult Classic on repeat.

What were your favorite and least favorite subjects in school? Such a basic answer, but faves: English and History, least faves: Math and Science.

What’s your go-to comfort meal?

Raising Canes. It was right next to the theatre in grad school, so now my brain is wired to want fried chicken and crinkle fries whenever I feel discomfort, vulnerability, or success.
