A proud mother and a living wife, Rhea is a newcomer making her debut and hopes to bring a bright spark to every interaction.

Born into a theatrical family, Jen was a professional actor from childhood, performing on stages in New York, LA, and Miami while beginning their voiceover career at age seven. From performing with The Second City and winning Best Supporting Actress at SETC to directing critically-acclaimed productions like Three Viewings [GTG], [title of show] [TART] and She Kills Monsters [TART], their expertise is vast. In addition to directing they have stage managed for the RSC, designed a number of immersive theatre experiences for events around the world and lent their voice to multiple audiobooks. They founded their own production company in Las Vegas, where they produced numerous shows from small venues to full Broadway-scale productions. They bring this wealth of experience to their current work as a freelance director, designer, and professional voice actor based in the Pacific Northwest.

​

When not doing stage works, Jen can be found in their home studio writing, voicing and engineering the scripted podcast 'The Purgatory Report on CPRG'; playing DnD with their wife and kid; and being a general nuisance to the less whimsically-inclined.
