who is she?

and why is this picture so big?

Erika Henningsen is an actor, singer, writer, dog-owner, animation voice artist and female human living in New York City. Between roles on Broadway and on television, she’s been writing little stories about her life and never thought she’d share them with the world until she rewatched Julie & Julia one day and thought, “If Amy Adams can do it, so can I!” A great mantra for anyone, really. You might know her from playing Cady in Mean Girls on Broadway or her portrayal of Charlie Morningstar in Hazbin Hotel, or from representing Uzbekistan in Campolindo High School’s Model United Nations Security Council, 2009. Erika’s pet peeve is talking about herself in third person, so she’s going to stop now.

Like you’re a little friend I carry around in my pocket and tell all my weird thoughts and secrets too. Doesn’t that sound fun? My pocket has a LOT of crumbled dog treats in it, though, so…you’ve been warned.
