She started her acting career in 2001, landing her first professional assignments on television, largely as a guest star on episodes including “The Outer Limits,” “Smallville,” “Mysterious Ways,” and “Andromeda.” She was subsequently cast in her first feature film project, “They,” a supernatural horror film about a group of four adults who have night terrors and must deal with the consequences of their childhood experiences. The project’s executive producer was Wes Craven.
She continued to work in television, with a recurring role in “Jeremiah,” a post-apocalyptic show that ran on Showtime but was eventually canceled due to the network’s lack of interest in science fiction programs. She also had a recurring role in “Stephen King’s Dead Zone,” which is about a man who awakens from a coma and realizes he has psychic skills.
