You + Laughter = Better World

If you feel like you’ll never fit in or find people who totally get you, then you've come to the right gal.

I've been an outsider for most of my life, never quite fitting into any of the communities that I frequent. I grew up in an Italian-American family, but looked like a Nordic princess. I walked into prestigious Wesleyan with a Queens swagger and accent. I was an oddball chemistry teacher more interested in social justice than experiments. And now as a matter of habit I continue to defy traditional labels in what I create.

I've spent my life being the odd one out. And I want to help you laugh about what's hard in this world.

Wanna join me?


You wouldn’t know by looking at me:

1) I did a brief stint as a high school Chemistry teacher in Oakland, CA and, as an unconscious homage to Fire Marshall Bill, almost blew up the classroom several times.

2) I’m the last person on earth who rents videos from both the New York Public Library and Netflix DVD. (I recommend the old movie reels at the Library for the Performing Arts.)

3) I routinely cut out articles from newspapers and magazines and MAIL to people who I think would be interested.

4) I speak on college campuses about Vintage Hollywood LGBTQ+ history.

5) I’m was raised in a 100% Italian American family and predominantly Italian-American neighborhood, so spent my formative years as Gulliver (I’m 5’10”) amongst the Lilliputians.

6) I've lived and worked in many different places around the world, gathering unique skills along the way, like dancing Bharatanatyam, speaking Swahili, and rolling my own pasta.

7) I worked at Restaurant Florent as an overnight host and to make it easier to wrangle the drunk late-night patrons, dressed as a different deranged character every night.

8) A few years ago I found out that I was a donor-conceived kid and that my genetic family is related (maybe) to Princess Diana.

9) I don’t have a text alert or any other notifications on my phone. The only thing the device does is ring!

10) I’m a queer dyke but married a cis-het dude.
