AGE: 28

Heather is originally from Essex, VT but has lived in LA for 2 years. She has worked at Lucques for 9 months.

FAVORITE CELEBRITY SIGHTING AT WORK: “Actually it’s our head chef Suzanne Goin. I’m even more obsessed with food than I am with acting. She was just nominated for her 3rd or 4th James Beard award. I get more star struck around Suzanne than I do around the celebrities who come in.”

MOVED TO LA BECAUSE: “I needed to get out of NYC. I’d been there for 8 years and felt like there was more opportunity out here. It was time for a change. I had done a lot of theater and wanted to give TV/Film a try.”

WORST AUDITION STORY: “I went for this workout video audition once, I have no idea why I was called in. I guess my headshot looks athletic. So I walk into the room and they ask me to do a workout routine. So I just start moving in some sort of aerobic workout type thing. I even did push-ups. The cameraman stopped the camera and called over the casting director and said ‘hey look at this.’ They just watched it in front of me and started cracking up. Finally they just said ‘thanks for coming in.”

DREAM ROLE: “It’s always been to play Laura in The Glass Menagerie. But I feel like the mom in ‘Six Feet Under’ would have been perfect for me when I was older.”
