Merry Chirstmas!! And then some.

Hello Lovers!

I don't have too much to post about acting wise. Good news though! I was cast in a trailer (hopefully feature) where I will be playing the nurse one of the main characters falls in love with. O yea. Flirty eyes from across a room are my specialty! (Duh, I got the part. And constant attention at bars...just kidding. I'm so lonely!)

HOME played a gig a few Fridays ago at Kulak's Woodshed in North Hollywood. The venue was sweet and there was a live stream of our concert online. If I would have known ahead of time I would have advertised it a little more so my Ohio friends could have watched us live! AH! Next time. Here is a little peak of us at Kulak's.


Dee (our lead singer) is producing a webseries about HOME. Yay! I will definitely post links to that when it is ready to launch. I might even tweet about it. 

In other news, my brother Aaron got married on Sunday! Say What?! Yes. Aaron is married. I don't think it has sunk in quite yet. The wedding was beautiful. I was so happy to be there and witness Aaron and Hannah's love in action. I have not gotten to spend a lot of time with my sister-in-law, but the kids are most assuredly in love. And it was an excuse to get the Leow Trio together. (Yes, we record music together. Check out our band page by clicking our name.)

The Leow Trio
I miss my brothers a lot.

LAism of the Week:
LA was voted the #1 rudest city in America this year by Travel+Leisure.When I heard this on NPR, I was not surprised. If working at a Coffee Bean did not teach me this, I don't know what would have. The people stumbling in at 5am for their first sip of precious caffeine were not the worst offenders. It was the housewives, industry types, and just plain entitled that came in after dropping off the kids or on the way to work. I was having a discussion with a fellow bridal party member about how nice people in Seattle are when I realized really how rude residents of LA can be. I feel like I could write and write on this subject, but instead of working myself up, I just want everyone to take a moment and realize we are all humans. We are all coming from somewhere. Maybe traffic was bad and now this person is worked up because he/she is late (always in LA) Or, their pet just passed away, or said person got into a fight with his/her significant other. If we all treated each other with respect and tried to really understand one another, America wouldn't have any rude cities.

We've Got that Holiday Feeling

Hello Friends and Lovers!

The holidays are upon us! Happy Thanksgiving last week! I had a "Friendsgiving" with my fellow Sierra Crest residents. I made the mashed potatoes. I should have taken a picture of the massive pan I had filled with potatoes, but I had too much wine. Ooops. Still turned out non-poisonous.
I also attended a Hanukkah party with some SoulCycle people. It was delicious! And I'd never been to a Hanukkah party before. 

My last few weeks has been surprisingly busy acting-wise.

I was on the Mindy Project! LOOK! It's my legs!


AND my whole body!


Stole the show, I know!

In other news: I have links! LINKS LINKS LINKS!

Remember a few months ago I was in a 7 minute short that was done all in one take? You don't? Well I did! And here it is!


My leading man also has a fun YouTube series on SoulPancake. Check out one of his episodes of Science of Happiness

I also got the link to the L Word campaign video! Watch the video, sign the petition. Warning: Contains hilarious lesbian themed humor.


Other than having some footage for yous guys I had a few auditions and one call back in the last few weeks. Notably, an improv audition where I got to play the role of a young Charlie Parkhurst. If you've never heard of him, GOOGLE IT. I'm serious! What an interesting story. I'll leave it up to you though.

I'm glad auditions have picked up a bit. I just need to find a couple good clips to add to my reel and I'll be ready for pilot season. All I need now is all the money in the world so I can go to some casting director workshops or agent "meet ups" and get my foot in the door somewhere.

I'm currently, at this moment, preparing for an audition in an hour for a play version of the Diary of Anne Frank. I'm auditioning for her older sister, Margot. Wish me luck!

LAism of the Week:

I'm in class with the guy in the blue boxers second on the right.


10 hour rehearsal day then a 12 hour shoot day! A good prep for the Christmas season!
