What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?

I had finally convinced my life partner, Willie to dress up as Shrek to my Fiona for Halloween. He wanted nothing to do with dressing up for the entirety of our relationship until I made him Shrek. He got so many smiles from children AND adults that he fell into character and had the best time. He asked me to paint him up again the next year. I was so happy to see him light up like a kid again:) He passed suddenly in 2023 so I’m so happy we were able to make those memories together:)

Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.

My will to live will always be stronger than someone or something else’s need to kill!

What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?

After donating to the Starlight Children’s Foundation I would use a little bit to take a REAL vacation, a little to put down on a better car, a fair chunk to upgrade my makeup space and stock up on my favorite Mehron paints and absolutely donations would go to my local animal shelter and the Boise Rescue Mission homeless shelter:)

Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?

My son, Mason. He’s a good man, Navy veteran, been through a lot and came out a better person because of it. He’s strong, smart, skilled in the art of survival and he loves his momma! We would be a villain’s worst nightmare!
