bio

I have been acting since I was a child but professionally, since 2019. I took a break in 2022 to rediscover my passion for acting to regain the absolute joy I have always derived from it and take time to learn, unlearn, and relearn while refining my acting skills. Although it was a difficult decision at the time, I felt it was necessary because I was confused as I could not understand why I did not enjoy acting as much anymore...it was a point I never imagined I could get to and I did not know what to do or what was going on. Now I feel like I have found myself again and why I enjoyed acting in the first place. I am very eager to get back into acting, hold a script in my hands again, and master a character. My passion for acting is inspired by the freedom I get from it...freedom to be whoever I want to be without fear of being judged or having to live with certain prejudices. It allows me to freely explore not only every part of myself as a person and an actress, but also other people's lives, mannerisms, joys, sorrows, fears, and day-to-day experiences as I dive into living their lives and telling their stories in the most authentic way I know how. I can lose myself even just for a bit while finding myself, paradoxically, and the joy I get from this makes me feel like it is strong enough to carry me around because it feels like I am just floating! I could go on about what inspires me to act but to sum it up, I enjoy the freedom and joy I get while telling stories. It feels like I have the opportunity to live and explore a thousand lives at once! I have a number of interests: going on adventures, sports, playing instruments, learning languages and experiencing different cultures, cooking and baking, yoga, exercising, reading, writing, art, fashion, and design. My skills include: drawing, painting, designing, playing the guitar, singing, sewing, cooking, and creative writing.
