Senta Moses provides examples of:
- The Cast Showoff: Beakman's World devoted a segment to the science of breaking boards, making use of Senta's karate skills in the process.
- Older Than They Look: She made a career out of Dawson Casting in the '90s, playing many teenage roles despite not being a teenager since 1993. Even at age 40 (when the page image was taken), she still doesn't look much older than 30. (Her short height also helped).
- Quirky Curls: She has naturally curly hair, which means she has a history of playing either Genki Girls (Phoebe, Lizzi) or nerdy introverts (Winifred, etc.) Part of Lizzi's makeover in Greek got rid of the wild curls for a more businesslike straight 'do, intended to bust her out of her Plucky Office Girl persona.
