In the fall of 1999 I flew half way around the world to follow my dream of visiting New Zealand and perhaps
finding crew work in the film industry there.
finding crew work in the film industry there.
While exploring the landscapes of Middle-earth and unraveling New Zealand's film industry intrigues, I quite
accidentally found myself working as a stunt woman with New Zealand's "stuntees," who risk injury and death
each day.

I am currently writing Stuntee, a
book about my extraordinary travels
in NZ. I've created these pages to
share some of my journals and
photos with the many people who
have asked to know more about my
adventures.
