She is the proud creator and executive producer of Sex Rules (sexrules.com), a highly engaging interactive sexual assault awareness and prevention educational experience. She is also the creator of Feeling Risky, a comprehensive and playful approach to discussing alcohol, drugs, and personal risk management (feeling-risky.com).Her company, Ruby Dietz (rubydietz.com), is dedicated to engaging, compelling, and memorable speaking and educational experiences for students of all ages, military, corporations, and seekers of any kind.A big fan of shaking up traditional narratives, she recently wrote, produced, and starred in an interactive Choose-Your-Own-Adventure-style sketch comedy show for AmazeVR, available on Oculus.She studied writing, improvisation, and sketch performance at The Second City Chicago, iO, The Groundlings, UCB, and a bunch of other places you've probably never heard of. She performs regularly at The Westside Comedy Theater with Mission IMPROVable, tours the country with multiple educational and entertainment-oriented shows for colleges, contributes to a number of online publications as a freelance writer, and works regularly as an actress and Voice-Over artist. She also has a stand-up comedy special on Amazon called "Articulate Neanderthal."As a creator, her hyperactive imagination, sharp often wicked sense of humor, and general Midwestern sensibilities seep their way into all her stories. The themes often focus on community, belonging, and what it means to feel out-of-place. She writes mostly comedy pilots and features where the majority of the characters are fish out of water who feel somehow on the outside and are trying to find their own unique way of fitting into the surrounding world. They often find that, in the process, they become simultaneously their biggest advocates and their own worst enemies. And they always, like the writer, possess a deep and often dark sense of humor.
