An actress, journalist, stand-up comic, and developer of content for television. All my life, I have dealt with telling a story in a funny way. Over the last fifteen years, I have written and shared my personal stories in comics, magazines, and newspapers, among them, Menta, Mako, and Nana. For the last two years, I have written in an Israeli cultural affairs magazine every weekend and an op-ed in the daily newspaper. I am a graduate of Communications and Business Management from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, as well as a graduate of New York's HB Studio in New York and Israel's "Beit Zvi" School of the Performing Arts.
