1. How did you get into the industry?
It was an accident actually. I was wondering around my first Chiller convention because my sister wanted a Jason mask, so I took her to Chiller to get one. I was discovered by WAVE productions and actually did my first horror scene at the convention… it screened later that day and the rest is history.
2. What Scream Queen inspired you most?
I was not inspired by any Scream Queen to tell you the truth I didn’t even know what a Scream Queen was.
3. What are the next couple projects you are working on?
Okay I did quite a few movies recently: The Lake on Clinton Road, The Hunters, The Psychotics, Flesh for the Beast, Upsidedown Cross, The Reckoning, Second Chances, Under a Blanket of Blue…
