Fontaine has a background in all things expressive [standup, sketch and improvisational comedy, installation work and found object sculpture]. She began her studies in Communications Media at Simmons College in Boston and continued her education studying Performance/Video at the California College of the Arts in Oakland. Fontaine went on to star in the independent feature, Some Prefer Cake. She also co-wrote, co-produced and co-starred with the sketch comedy troupe Nude Coffee, playing venues throughout the United States and Europe, most notably Edinburgh’s International Fringe Festival. Fontaine’s first-ever one person show Learning to Stay has been selected for mentorship by The Global Center for Cultural Entrepreneurship. An artist with a vision and a healer with a heart she has found a whole new way of being in the world and a call to create matching that vibration.
