Simone's theatre company, Signal Ensemble Theatre, is a huge inspiration & motivating force in her life. She has found her true artistic home & family with a group of incredibly talented, creative, and wonderful people.
The fact that she didn't win the Jeff Award that she was nominated for in 2006 has probably inspired her even more than if she had won it. She is driven to continue growing and perfecting her art so that some day she can bring home the award!
