Most recently, she was a featured artist with the Neo-Futurists for the 2022 Chicago International Puppet Theater Festival. Also in 2022, Goodnight Shadow, her short puppet film made during COVID lockdown, was presented at the London International Mime Festival along with a selection of other Handmade Puppet Dreams films.
