I started doing comedy with no plan to do voice work. Voice work came as a function of doing comedy and meeting people who eventually develop shows like that. I didn't seek out from an early age to be on cartoons.

I realized that people make cartoons for a living. It had never dawned on me that you could do this as a career.

I've been able to work with some incredible voice talent, most of whom I grew up hearing in my favorite cartoons.

The journalism school helped me develop writing skills, and I had been enjoying cartooning from a very young age. My interest in puppetry, however, came much later.

My first real showbiz job was on a Nickelodeon show called 'Hey, Dude.' That was my first real paid scriptwriting job.

My very first job was working on a TV show that was a prestigious TV show and well done - was called 'Family.'

My first job was singing on the Cas Walker radio show in Knoxville, Tennessee. I was about 10 years old, and I thought it was big time.

Around 2000, I was working on cartoons like 'PB&J Otter' and 'Doug.'

There was a teacher who recognized that I was interested in cartooning and he was great.

My first job was in pantomime; I was a chorus girl in 'Dick Whittington' at 16. I got the part by ringing the director daily to see if anyone had dropped out, and it paid off eventually, when I was cast as a rat!
