Adina Gillett

Adina hails originally from sunny southern California, but please keep reading. After realizing that her shiny Poli-Sci degree from UCLA meant that she had no job skills, Adina fell into a Technical Writer career thanks to a broken road of sketchy temp jobs. She spent most of the 90’s in high tech until she had her first low tech pregnancy. Adina exited the high-tech world to focus on keeping her two human children alive, and to nurture her third child – Improvisational Comedy. Adina spent most of the next two decades as a company member of Jet City Improv as a performer, teacher, corporate workshop trainer, and director of full-length improvised plays. Somewhere in the middle of that, Adina accidentally became a Hypnotherapist, and currently owns her own practice. Somewhere to the left and across from that, Adina joined the Assistance League of the Eastside – an all-volunteer non-profit that produces critical philanthropic programs to aid local women and families suffering from hardship and violence. When Adina isn’t doing any of those aforementioned things, you very well may find her playing tennis, tending to her goats Scooby and Flapjack, or lamenting that she lives in unincorporated King County which means she can never run for Mayor of Redmond, because she’s pretty sure she could eventually win that.
