About Jen Levin
Actress/Blogger - I’m originally from the Bay Area, but I’ve been in LA for over a decade now, so I consider myself a native. I’m working as both a blogger and actress (with a couple of day jobs to pay the bills on the side). I love being in the entertainment industry where every day is an adventure! When I’m not working on my career, I’m either reading (I’m a total book nerd) or enjoying my newfound love for spin class (which is helping towards my goal of losing 100 pounds for the last time). I like to joke that I’m a girl with Southern charm and Jersey moxie, which I think has worked well for me so far!
Like many actors, I’d always dreamed about walking a major Hollywood red carpet. 2012 was the year it happened. I’m…

About Kylie Sparks
Girl, actor (SAG-AFTRA/AEA), singer, writer, pancake enthusiast, USC alumna, tends to be THAT person who is dancing and singing (or rapping) in her car at all times. Enjoys playing with her two pups Pie and Gemma (both rescues; support your local no-kill rescue organizations!), traveling, fashion, Bradley Cooper, scruffy musician/talented bad boys, music of all genres, vegan nachos, coffee, exploring with friends, and brunch dates (the Los Angeles equivalent of Church). Has been in movies and TV and on stage and on the internet and tends to pop up when you least expect it, like a sneaky badger. Has a killer impersonation of Stitch and an improving one of WALL-E. Daughter to the best mom a girl could ask for, and a dad who supports her Louis Vuitton addiction. Wanted to name her memoirs “Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close” but someone already took that title.
