She is also a member of National Lampoon's sketch comedy team, making a sketch comedy podcast heard by half a million monthly listeners.

Her investment in producing audio content and a SAG New Media web series has helped her get more and better acting roles and writing gigs. It’s also allowed her to establish herself as a producer, co-producer, and director. She’s been asked to work as a judge in writing contests and consults with those producing web series, podcasts, and audiobooks.

This interview with Nancy Fulton discusses how writers, actors, and producers benefit from generating independent media.
