For this 3rd installment of Diary of a Creative from OZ to NZ I virtually traverse the Trans-Tasman bubble into Middle Earth to chat with an individual who is a dedicated and respected early childhood educator, has referred to themselves as an accidental actor, starring in tv shows the likes of The Watercooler, The Eggplant and my personal favourite Wellington Paranormal as well as various short films.

In addition to appearing as Officer O’Leary alongside her patrol partner Officer Minogue in their original incarnations as members of the New Zealand police force in the Vampire Mockumentary 'What We Do In the Shadows', written and directed by Taika Waititi and Jermaine Clement.

And when not playing Scully to Minogue’s on-screen police persona of Moulder because, "he’s a guy with brown hair", you can catch her musical stylings in the kids band Fun & Funner with ECC colleague and good friend Tom Watson accompanied by some awesome Wellington musicians making and playing music for kids' that adults love too!

Welcome to the show KAREN O’LEARY.
