Returning to film, acting, and music roots, Darby studied at Second City in Los Angeles; with legendary manager and acting coach, Sam Christensen; began working with independent crews in Los Angeles as grip, writer, production assistant, editor... whatever she could get her hands on. She returned to school and earned a BA in Creative Writing from Antioch University Los Angeles.
