When it was time to return to home, Abigail worked with various Off-Broadway and Off-Off Broadway companies, as well as regional summer theatres.  She went on to receive her MFA from the NYU Graduate Acting Program (Tisch School of the Arts).

After the pleasure of working On-Camera with Sarah Jessica Parker and the late, great Jerry Orbach, she decided to check out Los Angeles.  When she almost booked a job on THE PRACTICE her first week visiting, she began to spend more time there.  Abigail was offered two episodes of  NYPD BLUE without having to audition, and played the recurring role of "Nurse Solly" on  DAYS OF OUR LIVES,  named  for the Solomon family nickname "Solly."  Although she worked with Brad & Angie on MR. & MRS. SMITH, she has no scoop.  She also worked with Joe Mantegna and Barbara Hershey on the indie film CHILDLESS.
