When working at a law firm, she discovered she was spending more time acting than learning, and so she was forced to visit New York to take acting lessons. She lived in Minneapolis for three years without landing any acting jobs before being sent on a trip to Minneapolis, where she first appeared on a recommendation. She attended Yale University School of Drama in 1986, where she spent three years.
