EMILY

Suzy Weller is an actor and artist based in Brooklyn. She's performed in theaters across the country including Berkeley Rep, the Guthrie Theater, and Actors Theatre of Louisville. She's also been in a Lifetime movie but doesn't want you to look it up. She's loved playing a farmer's daughter who becomes a pioneer for a hot Mormon, because it's so relatable. Okay but seriously, she is incredibly proud to be a part of Bear Lake. Check out her art instagram for tattoo designs and doodles: @tinyhandsdraw
