Squonk is SOOOOO cute and a riot to play. It's the character I mentioned a few months ago that I'd want to get a stuffed animal of for my kids. Fingers crossed they come out with one! Thanks for your patience. I have 12 other roles in 3 other series and 4 other movies coming within the next year but all are still hush hush. Hopefully soon I can share more! Have a great weekend my lovely fans. Thanks always for the love and support". Facebook. Retrieved 26 February 2016.

Second announcement, World of Winx Premiered on Netflix November 8th and I got to voice two fun recurring guest characters, Sophia and Lorelei. It's always fun to play an over the top character who sings poorly! Third announcement is I voiced three characters on three guest episodes of P.King Duckling which premiered November 7th on Disney Junior. I don't know which episodes have aired yet so I can't say which characters I voiced. I'm pretty sure Mrs. Chicken has appeared though! I'll do my best to find all of that out for ya. The show currently airs on Disney Junior Daily at 5:00 pm and again on Saturday mornings at 8:00 and 8:30 am on The Disney Channel. Fourth announcement is I got to work on YOUR NAME. I wasn't available during auditions so unfortunately missed out on the opportunity but I thankfully got asked to do walla and of course said yes. Fifth announcement is that so far I have two new con appearance announcements to make….but not just yet. Hang tight!". Facebook.

I had no intention of making a third announcement today but I was at target looking in the DVD section for b'day gifts for my husband and perhaps a cute animated film for the kids for Valentine's Day and I see this! My daughter makes her voice acting debut in this film and I got to be in it with her playing the title character of Zarafa (the older version). I'll announce her character role once I get back home from this target parking lot! Ha! Had no clue when it was coming out...apparently it already was. Both are cameo roles but it was amazing to share her first experience together. This film is very moving. Be prepared for a tear or two". Facebook.

Edwards, Graham Halstead and directed by Lisa Ortiz at NYAVPost. I love the style of this piece from the animation, and performances to the gorgeous and hypnotic score.
