Emily Ruskowski (Comic)
Emily Ruskowski is a one-woman charm offensive. With a style that's totally approachable and instantly impressive, Emily is equally comfortable diving into personal insecurities or workplace nonsense. With an irrepressibly cheerful demeanor, she commands attention and delivers stories loaded with punchline after punchline. Emily’s comedy combines a quick mind, an infectious energy, and a totally unique eye for observation. She brings a genuine sense of fun to material that ranges from a career in social work to a passion for boy bands. Emily has been featured in the Washington Post and Boston Globe and has appeared on the popular 2 Dope Queens Podcast and Laughs TV on Fox.

Charlie Weld (Musician)
I strongly believe in solidifying women's places in music and know we need more women in positions of power. I hope to continue to support all females in the industry and out of it.

Ananda Mitchell (Vocalist)
Ananda’s voice is a sublime force of nature. Interpreting jazz or
soul, rock or blues, country, Motown, pop or world music, she transfuses her
audiences with a powerful joie de vivre. Originally from Trinidad & Tobago, her voice has captured New England & the world for the last decade performing lead vocals at bespoke events for her band Ripcord.

She has a wide range of influences from Aretha to Alanis and everything in between.

Jacyn Tremblay (Co-Producer/vocalist) is versatile singer, songwriter, and recording artist with over 2 decades of professional experience! She currently performs throughout New England with the 9-piece band Beantown. Other musical credits include single releases on Universal/Motown Records in the pop/r&b vocal group Jada, pop/rock singles in the duo Venus Mars Project, performing as a regularly featured soloist with the Hillyer Festival Orchestra and most recently with The Portsmouth Symphony Orchestra and Merrimack Philiharmonic.
