On the picket line this week with my niece & @the_furious_owl! Thank you to all the friends & family members & sister unions who have been fighting with us. Standing together is everything. Solidarity is why we know we will win. ✊🎭 I owe so very much of my ability to endure and succeed in this business to my family and my Brian, who have always and fervently supported my ambitions and championed my efforts. I have found that the people you surround yourself with are as important to artistic success (and sanity) as everything you yourself bring to the table, not least of which is that burning, at-times inexplicable passion from deep within that urges you in even the darkest moments to “never give up, never surrender!” I cannot wait to get back to work, to get back to doing what I love with a supremely talented cast & crew of storytellers. Until then, a life of uphill hustling has primed all us working actors & writers for this moment. However long they think we can go, we can go longer. Because the future of our industry is at stake. Because we deserve fair contracts, respect, transparency, and living wages for the work we do and the stories we look forward to getting back to telling. @sagaftra @sagaftrafound #SAGAFTRAstrike #SAGAFTRAstrong
Great minds.

Not sure if @robert_picardo and I wrangled donkeys Milo and Danny Boy or if they wrangled us. Either way, @onthepoint_lakerotorua was one of many highlights during our New Zealand odyssey with @armageddonexponz. To more donkey encounters. And many more space adventures.
What convention are you most looking forward to this year and can I come? 📸: @paigexrage for @hollywoodlife at @newyorkcomiccon #NYCC2022
Yo. We look so good. ✨ #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds #TheIllyrianEnigma @idwpublishing
Hit it. 🚀💫
Happy Birthday to my Brian. To my prince. Raising a glass in his honor and celebrating that I had him to hold for as long as I did. But this is just a wee interlude. I know I’ll see him again, and that of course he’ll make it feel like no time has passed at all. 🌌🌅
We’re going to Mars! Join me & @exploremars for the Humans to Mars Summit at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington DC on Thursday, May 18th. www.ExploreMars.org Discount code: LtOrtegasMARS2023 #ExploreMars #HumansToMars #WomenInSTEM #StarTrek
My extraordinary mamá. Ever radiant and repping Star Trek. I’m celebrating her every day this year, along with the community of my people and Brian’s who got me through last year. She loved my prince, and loves him still, and talks about him with me often and whenever I want. She shares my rage at a “mundo mal hecho” and makes me laugh and understands grief and how to speak to it and that even though it never ends, we won’t let it end us. And she is never short on Brian stories that remind me when I need it most how he was always there for me and how he is very much here still. To my mom. Whose smile makes me happy. 🌻🌹🌸
Space Baby ✨
May the 4th be over ‘cause #NationalAstronautDay is Friday, May 5th! Join me for an IG Live tomorrow at 11 AM (ET) with @NASA astronaut Garrett Reisman. We’ll be talking space travel & Star Trek, taking questions, and celebrating a bright future. @uniphigood #WeBelieveInAstronauts #GoBoldly #LLAP
My sister surprised me with two ceramic egg cups that she made as her first project in pottery class. She decorated them with hand-painted elephants on one side, tiny hand-carved bees on the other, and “For Brian” on the underside. Perfect, all of it. I honestly don’t know how this past year of grief on grief on grief would have been possible without the thoughtful, creative, intelligent, attentive, intuitive, and downright incredible people in my life and in Brian’s. From New York 🍎 to Toronto 🖖 to Ireland 🇮🇪 to Colombia 🇨🇴 to places near & far beyond. Thank you to everyone who keeps surprising me in ways both big and small. And please, please, please if you know someone in your life who is grieving, find a way to not only remind them of your presence but to remind them of the presence of the person they are missing most. When they come out of the fog, however long it takes, they will remember. 🐝 @sorayadesignsthings 🐘
