Gingy

“Gingy is a part I have always wanted to play. Everybody remembers the ‘not my gumdrop buttons’ part and how could you not have a blast reenacting that on stage?!”

How I spend my days: I am a construction project manager at Gardner Builders, specializing in the building and renovation of hospitals and clinics. I love my job!

My most enjoyable past theater role: Wilbur in Charlotte’s Web when I was 17. It was my first lead in a musical and taught me a lot about confidence and giving it your all on stage – that’s a tough lesson for a teenage girl dressed as a pig in front of hundreds of people. 🙂

One word to describe myself: Newlywed! (I just got married in February!)

A surprising thing about me: Working in construction, my fun fact is always that I’m also an actor. It’s weird to be asked this the other way so I guess maybe it’s that I work in construction?

What I do for fun: I love running around the lakes in Minneapolis and going on walks with my husband and corgi. 

Volunteer activities: I was elected to my first non-profit Board of Directors this year with the Minnesota Commercial Real Estate Women, an organization that supports the advancement of women in RE and Construction careers (something I am very passionate about!)
