I was a small town girl homeschooled and went to private high school but very much developed great public speaking skills and confidence through theatre, debate team, and sports. I have acted for very small roles with friends but I have hosted as a car show girl, done brand ambassador gigs, and even been in parades/other viral moments online. Very confident when it comes to script memorization, presentation, and deliverance. I’m here to succeed, not cross my fingers and hope to be one day.
I’m a 32-year-old performer of Armenian and Italian heritage with a background in music, theater, acting, modeling, and live performance. Entertainment has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I began working in the entertainment industry around the age of seven, doing background work on television shows and films. As I got older, I attended Orange County High School of the Arts (OCSA), where I trained in both the Music and Theater Conservatories. My training included opera, vocal performance, acting, stage presence, and years of coaching from professional vocal instructors. Singing is still one of my greatest passions and remains a major part of my life today. Over the years, I’ve taken numerous acting, dance, and performance classes and have explored many different areas of entertainment. While I stepped away from pursuing entertainment professionally for several years, my passion for performing never went away. What I bring to any project is authenticity, adaptability, and a genuine love for connecting with people. I’m naturally outgoing, funny, easy to work with, and able to relate to people from all backgrounds. I take direction well, work hard, stay professional, and am comfortable with long production days. Whether it’s acting, singing, modeling, hosting, or content creation, I enjoy opportunities that allow me to tell stories and entertain others. At this stage of my life, I’m returning to entertainment because I know it’s where I’m meant to be. Entertaining people has always come naturally to me, and I’m excited to continue growing, learning, and challenging myself as a performer. I’m here because I believe in taking chances on the things that matter most, and for me, that’s pursuing a career doing what I love. I’m excited to bring my energy, personality, work ethic, and life experience to new projects and opportunities.

Hello. I am a very versatile person and non-union. I enjoy meeting new people from all walks of life. I was born an artist and I love to read, write and perform. My experience includes a nation wide commercial, theater (principal part/non-profit), film, background extra and modeling. Recently I performed an improvisation for an episode of Court TV which was my first speaking part and I really enjoyed working with the producers. I like auditioning for parts and expanding my talents. When I was a child I wrote scripts and performed puppet shows. Guess that is where it all started. I was born in Montreal, QC. My mom was Portuguese and French and my dad was German. Therefore, I can pass for Hispanic, Latin, Italian and European decent. I have family in LA so if I am chosen for work in that area, I can arrange my schedule. I am a licensed CA Realtor, have a BS in Business/Marketing, married and I love to travel and see new things. Thank you.
