3 people have recommended Brenda

"I have had the privelege to work with Brenda on a couple of projects now. One project had her working as a

teaching artist with at-risk Bay Area youth in an after school theater program for 10 weeks through the Mime

Troupe. The other project was acting in the San Francisco Mime Troupe's production of : "Too Big To Fail". I

have to say, Brenda is a total professional! She's a dedicated, hard-working, intelligent, gifted theater

actor/teaching artist. Whether she's working with at-risk youth and inspiring them to look beyond their

immediate circumstances to recognize their potential, or standing on a stage wowing the audience with her

magnetism, Brenda brings all of herself to everything she does. I feel very lucky to have had the opportunities

to not only watch her work, but also learn from her example. I highly recommend Brenda for any position she

applies for in the arts--she's a total pro

Lisa Hori-Garcia, collective member & actor, SF MIME TROUPE, worked directly with Brenda at San

Francisco Mime Troupe

"You will not find a more passionate hard working individual than Brenda! Brenda proved to be a student

favorite, not only because she was thorough in her classes, but because students were keenly aware of her

deep commitment to them and to the art. The same is true with her work with at risk teens through the San

Francisco Mime Troupe. Brenda, as a matter of course, challenges and empowers people."

Aldo Billingslea, was Brenda's client

"Brenda and I worked together on a few projects during our course of studies at USF. She always went over

and above on what she brought to the table. She was extremely organized, thoughtful and creative with her

delivery of research and findings. I found her to be a leader in the class discussions and was great at engaging

others. She excels in an academic setting and her value for quality education and pursuit of knowledge is

consistently present."

Amber Schmaeling, Marketing & Outreach Director, Midtown Business Association, studied with

Brenda at University of San Francisco
