More about herself

Despite popular belief, she has said that she is a naturally introverted person who often struggles with shyness. She’s generally quiet in social situations and has to “psyche myself up” to prepare for the attention she gets at conventions. This puts her in stark contrast to her most famous character, Yang Xiao Long, who is outgoing and rambunctious in ways that she simply is not.

She has said that she has a habit of “clamming up” in social situations, meaning she has periods where she goes downright silent in groups of people. Moreover, she is a hockey fan, her favorite team being the Ottawa Senators.

She was in a relationship with fellow voice actor and writer, Aaron Marquis. He was also a Rooster Teeth employee. She has been in a relationship with Trevor Collins since February 2018.
