Cats or dogs?
I love all animals, but cats are the elite furry companions.
When I was 5, I was pretty sure I’d be a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader when I grew up. And then in 4th grade, when we were called to the front of the room to share our career goals, my teacher (looking at you, Mr. Brown) said “Let’s be a little more realistic, Kelly.” which I believe led to my disdain for cheerleaders (and overly cheerful people in general) later in life.
Do you have any skills or talents that most people don’t know about?
I can shake my eyeballs. I don’t really even know how it happens, but there is some wicked brain sorcery involved.
What are you happiest doing, when you’re not working?
Laying in the hammock with a good read.
What’s a brush with fame you’ve had? Famous person/Celebrity you’ve bumped into?
I had Thai food with Carrie Brownstein and St. Vincent. Also, Ingrid Michaelson once told me she loved my bangs and then got bangs the next day.
What’s the worst piece of advice you’ve been given?
To stay in my lane. People who feel threatened by you will try to keep you small. Don’t let them.
