Catch me in Episode  6 of SAINT X on Hulu!

I was flown to the Dominican Republic to do a scene with Betsy Brandt, and that's about as awesome as things get.

Monica plays M'LYNN in Steel Magnolias at Pittsburgh Public Theater

Directed my Marya Sea Kaminski, and starring the most incredible ensemble of women, this is a bucket-list experience.  Sold-out houses, roaring laughter, and inevitable tears.

SCAB at Premiere Stages 
September 18-25

July 19, 2022

It's been a while since I've done a play, and I'm really looking forward to playing Gilda in Gino Diiorio's two-hander, SCAB, running at Premiere Stages at Kean University.

Directed by John Wooten, SCAB tells the story of Gilda, a middle-aged American woman tasked with training Eduardo, a young Mexican man, how to be a shop foreman when her factory plant moves to Mexico.

Five Days at Memorial wraps in New Orleans

November 20, 2021

Five Days at Memorial has wrapped.

What a treat it was to shoot in New Orleans (and Slidell, and Gretna, and Chalmette.)


Growing up, I visited family in New Orleans often- but those trips stopped after my aunt lost her home in Hurricane Katrina, and she moved to Houston.

More recently, my grandpa George lost his home in Lafitte, LA after 2021's Hurricane Ida. 

In both instances, I saw that Louisianans are resilient like nobody else. The support they show for one another, for neighbors in need, is unmatched. 

To play a strong, fiercely determined real Louisianan like Sandra LeBlanc was an honor.

That's a Wrap on Toronto!

September 12, 2021

My time shooting in Toronto has come to an end for now, and we will soon be headed to New Orleans to continue shooting Five Days at Memorial.


Recently, Hurricane Ida took its toll on Louisiana; in lieu of traditional wrap gifts, our production made a contribution to aid organizations in the greater New Orleans area.

Monica joins cast of Apple TV's FIVE DAYS AT MEMORIAL

August 3. 2021

I'm joining John Ridley and Carson Cuse's limited series, FIVE DAYS AT MEMORIAL, and I am pinching myself. Based on Sheri Fink's book of the same name, the series chronicles the dire events at New Orleans' Memorial Hospital, in the days after Hurricane Katrina. Having family who rode out the storm and lost their home in Katrina, this project means the world to me.

Rita Returns for a Sixth Episode of THE PATH

November 17, 2017

It was such fun to return as Rita Laslen for the final episode of Season Two of THE PATH.  We froze our tushies off, but the night ended with hugs all around. (And don't let Aaron Paul get hold of your phone!)

Hanging with Super Heroes

November 2016

Shhhh. I got to work on a super-secret (that is, if you live under a rock) Netflix show about some beloved and well-known super heroes. S.J. Clarkson directed the episode, and she was great- strong and creative, kind and funny...just a wonderful model for women in the film and TV industry. My scene involved some intense work from the steadicam operator- he was the hero of the day, for sure. I'm looking forward to seeing the episode (Ep 101) sometime in 2017!

Recurring Role on Hulu's THE PATH

October 2016

It was a great surprise to book a recurring role on Season 2 of THE PATH. Aaron Paul is as wonderful and kind as you think he is, and made everyone, including newcomers like me, feel welcome. Season 2 of THE PATH premieres January 25th on Hulu. Look for me in episodes 212 and 213. And fingers crossed for Season 3!
