[7] She also took various modeling, illustration, and acting gigs, including a starring role in the indie feature Bring on the Damned!, and wrote about interior-design trends for Architectural Digest.[8][9] She gained a following on her X (formerly Twitter) account posting jokes and passing thoughts and sharing her Y2K-style dollmaker.[10] In 2025, she completed her first novel, The Ingenue. She is seeking literary and talent representation, preferably from someone who agrees that Jeff Goldblum is a babe.
