Proudly queer opera singer into drag queens, bluegrass, social justice, equality, and cats – especially her own, River! 😻

The airport bar next to my gate is playing early 2000’s pop, and my god what a throwback! (In related news, I miss Ke$ha)

Jamie Barton DESTROYS La Zia Principessa!

This is a role I WISH I could sing.

What a shame this is the only great mezzo role Puccini wrote.

My toddler niece suggested tonight that maybe she and her parents come over to my place for a spend the night party, and in related news, I’m pretty sure this is the best feeling and auntie could have! 🥹🥲

I decided to rewatch the first Twilight movie tonight, and I have thoughts…

1. One of the weirdest things about rewatching this movie is remembering that there was a time where we all thought Kristen Stewart was straight

2. Kristen & Robert sure do have the awkward teenage conversation making down

Just experienced an earthquake at nearly 3am… this east coast girl and her cat are still on high alert! (And totally fine!)

I’m for sure thinking of Ailyn Perez for Suor… who should be Principessa?
September 6, 2025 at 10:16 AM
(Approximately 2 minutes after seeing each other for the first time in 7 years)

• Suor Angelica: “Who’s my little sister marrying?
• Principessa: “The man who loved your sister enough to forgive the sin which YOU stained our spotless family crest with!!”

I’m up late studying the next project, and I just need to say right here that imma neeeeeed some director at some point to stage the Suor Angelica/Principessa scene like a telenovela:

There are so many reasons I am ridiculously excited for the starter rehearsals for Dead Man Walking over here in San Francisco, but it’s also undeniable that I just got thoroughly giddy at thinking about how beautifully my hair behaves in the Bay Area climate. 🤣

I don’t usually talk like this, but “abolish ICE” should be the centrist position. Even if you are anti-immigration, this agency is an international embarrassment and a money pit.

Thank you for calling as well! I’ll admit that I got out of the habit of it a few weeks ago due to work/life being a bit full, but this is so important. This bill is a slap in the face to US citizens, and will literally result in deaths. Many, I fear. Again, thank you for making your voice heard!

I called my House Rep (Nikema Williams) today to voice my dissent against the budgetary bill that the Senate just pushed to the House/my support for her fighting the good fight on our behalf, and the person answering the phone was just so kind, and seemed so glad to hear from me.

Call your reps! 🙏🏻

Just sat behind some of the band members from Widespread Panic on a flight, and they were so delightfully normal and chill. It was so lovely to hear legendary rock stars be so kind and generous with everyone who thanked them for their music. 😊
