She’s best known as the actress who starred in the popular mockumentary series My Life as Liz, a role that really put her on the map. Over the years, she’s continued to build her presence in the entertainment world, including a notable appearance in the Nerdist Industries web series NerdTerns. Before all the spotlight, though, her first major break came back in 2007 with a role in the film Neal Cassady—a solid start for someone with big dreams. Hailing from Burleson, Texas, she brought a unique charm and authenticity to her performances that resonated with audiences. And while she’s made a name for herself through her work, there’s also been public interest in her personal life—she’s been romantically linked to actor and comedian Eric Wareheim, which added another layer to her growing public profile. As an actress, she’s shown range, relatability, and staying power, and fans continue to follow her journey with interest.
While she was in the middle of filming the second season of My Life as Liz, she decided to continue pursuing her education by attending the Pratt Institute. It wasn’t easy balancing both commitments, but she managed to stay focused and dedicated throughout. Her time at the institute actually gave her a creative outlet outside of the show, which helped her grow personally and professionally. During that period, she often spoke about how important it was to her to maintain a sense of normalcy, even while gaining public attention from My Life as Liz. Being enrolled at Pratt allowed her to connect with other aspiring artists and expand her skills beyond what the camera captured. She really made the most of that chapter in her life.
