## Life and career[edit]

In 1999 she was picked by producer Gary Ouellet to be one of the stars of the second of his World's Most Dangerous Magic specials. Ouellet and his team created for her the predicament escape trick "Rat Attack", in which she was shackled into a coffin-like box which was then filled with rats and she then magically escaped.[1][2] She studied acting and had small roles in the television series Night Court and The Young and the Restless.[1]
