I extend a thank you to every single team that I've had the pleasure of working with this year. My joy for acting would have never been rekindled without the amazing stories that I've had the honor of helping bring to life. Hopefully one day soon, I'll be back to take on something new again. ❤️‍🩹

I'm genuinely extremely apologetic to any teams I've been working with that may have been trying to get in touch with me via Discord this summer as I desperately needed to take a step back from my presence online. I would hope, as some already have, that I'd be emailed about any major info.

The opportunity to grow creatively and professionally has been amazing, but trying to make this a full career is just not where my life is headed right now. I need to focus on what I have and honor what I've already agreed to without burning myself out too quickly, like I already have.

Aside from that, however, I won't be taking on any new projects until I feel secure enough to do so.

I really overwhelmed myself by taking on too many projects at once, not exclusively to voice acting, and I had to step away from PhiVi to reorganize my priorities and figure out what's best for me.

For paid projects I've been contracted in previously, I will be honoring the contract to the best of my ability after my time away from Discord, which has turned into the main hub of communication for most of my projects - something that's honestly been very hard to keep up with.

Hey everyone - I'm sorry this has to be a Bluesky post first, but I'll be reaching out to everyone I'm currently working with.

Due to major changes in career priorities and life events, I'll officially be taking a hiatus from VA work. I'll be stepping down from any current unpaid projects.

Sorry for being so quiet on socials and Discord everyone - I've been brewing a lot behind the scenes in terms of personal life and passion projects, but I promise I am still out here working and ready to go! ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ

Said it before but the worse things get it bears repeating. You are not a ‘creative’ or a ‘maker.’ You’re an artist, & if you choose to distinguish, a playwright, painter, whatever. These words have a lineage, they mean something. They’re politically important. Take responsibility.

SAG-AFTRA is actor-led and actor-run.

SAG-AFTRA moves at the behest of the acting community.

The LBFO was rejected because a supermajority of actors who learned what was in it refused to accept it.

SAG-AFTRA isn't "forcing" us to be on strike.

We, the actors are choosing to remain on strike.

a hint over $200 short for rent this month, it seems. gesturing broadly in case you have things you would like voiced

so money is *incredibly tight* but i'll be damned if i just ask for donations so i've made it easier to hire me on my ko-fi. if you want me for a quick funny, or just need me for a smaller scale project, there's a much easier, quicker place to get me.

I'm really proud to have been part of the cast for this episode of Englewood After Dark! This project was right up my horror-loving elevator, and both the sound design team and my fellow VAs really hit this one out of the park 💝

Happy Pride Month! Have some decidedly-not-straight 70something lads!

9 talented folks (>50% are some flavor of 🏳️‍🌈) helped me make a steampunk-fantasy visual novel earlier this year—it's free, only about an hour long, and was made on SAG-AFTRA's Game Jam Waiver! 🫶

Happy Pride everyone! Our identities and experiences not only shape our work, but create a myriad of unique and unmatched talents across the board. Here's to my fellow queer VAs - not only are we not going anywhere, we're the damn foundation! (*＞∇＜)ﾉ
