Lemons into Vodka Lemonade

Natalie Vero, or newly and legally now Natalie Brisson, is an actor, comedian, writer, editor, producer, podcaster, traveler, snowboarder, and other funky things. She was born and raised on Long Island, graduated from Penn State University with bachelor degrees in Theatre Performance and Broadcast Journalism, attended The Second City's Comedy Studies Program, and then moved to NYC to pursue acting. In September of 2018, she and her high school sweetheart, Ryan, got engaged in Croatia. What they thought would be less than a two-year blissful engagement turned into a three-year roller coaster ride as a result of the pandemic and so much more bad luck. With the world shut down, wedding plans crumbling before them and creative career opportunities halted, Natalie and her fiancé, Ryan, started a podcast called Just A Wedding. On the podcast Natalie and Ryan discuss their terrible luck with wedding planning, they feature guests who dive into the impact that the pandemic has had on them, and they always find a way to remind themselves to take life's sour lemons and make a kick ass vodka lemonade.
