Shanda was sexually abused at an early age which led her down a path of feeling disconnected from her peers. This led her down a path of codependent relationships, repeating trauma, and becoming a struggling single mother who turned to stripping to make ends meet.Hear Shanda's inspirational story of a chance meeting while working as a hostess at an upscale restaurant in which famed movie producer and director Garry Marshall handpicked her to play a supporting role in his 2004 film Raising Helen. Starring Kate Hudson, Joan Cusack, Helen Mirren, Hayden Panettiere, and Spencer Breslin.  Now pursuing her dream as a full-time actor and producer, she embarks on helming her first independent production "The Elsewhere".
