Shortly after, Clint Eastwood cast her in her first film role, as Mardell Fitzgerald in Million Dollar Baby. Since then, she has appeared in several films and TV shows including The Last House on the Left, Changeling, My Best Friend's Girl, The Big Bang Theory and Pushing Daisies . She also wrote and directed two short films, Life is Short and Imaginary Larry. Riki is the "Garfunkel" half of the LA based comedy/folk duo, Garfunkel and Oates.
