Hi, i’m Jerilyn!

I’m passionate about live, highly physical and emotionally raw performance that uses dark comedy and surrealism to explore and expose the complexities of being human. My goal is to always make the audience laugh and aha! while breaking their hearts wide open.

As an actor and performer I’ve been lucky enough to work with Artists Repertory Theatre, Profile Theatre, Corrib Theatre, Upright Citizens Brigade, Kickstand Comedy, Oregon Contemporary Theatre, and Oregon Country Fair.

Feature film credits includes Woe and #chadgetstheaxe.

My award-winning improv team HONK has performed nationally and internationally (iO Fest, Vancouver Comedy Fest, RISE Comedy, MILF Comedy Festival) — catch our monthly show HONK If You’re Horny at Kickstand Comedy.

My solo show, BLOOM, premiered at Oregon Country Fair in 2025, and my full length play, Exhale, premiered as a staged reading in 2024 at the Fertile Ground Festival and again in 2025 at Third Rail Repertory Theatre’s salon readings.
