Vanessa Schieber

My name is Vanessa Schieber is a U.S. Army veteran, competitive athlete, author, and emerging on-camera talent whose distinctive look and commanding presence are matched by an equally compelling life story. With dark brunette hair, striking blue-gray eyes, an athletic build, and a naturally expressive presence, Vanessa brings a versatile look that can move effortlessly between polished and sophisticated, strong and authoritative, athletic, dramatic, and unconventional. Her combination of femininity and strength makes her particularly well suited for character-driven roles, military and law-enforcement portrayals, action-oriented projects, lifestyle and fitness work, dramatic productions, and commercial campaigns seeking authentic personality. A former Army Staff Sergeant and Purple Heart recipient, Vanessa brings genuine military experience, discipline, resilience, and composure to the camera. Her background also gives her an authenticity in physical and tactical roles that cannot easily be replicated. Outside of the military, she is a competitive tennis player, giving her natural athletic movement, coordination, stamina, and confidence in physically demanding environments. Vanessa is also an author with a deep appreciation for storytelling and character development. Intelligent, articulate, adaptable, and comfortable embracing both strength and vulnerability, she understands that memorable performances are created not simply by being seen, but by making an audience feel something. Her greatest asset is contrast: refined yet formidable, feminine yet athletic, approachable yet commanding. Combined with her distinctive features and extensive real-world experience, Vanessa offers casting professionals a memorable presence capable of bringing authenticity, intensity, and depth to both commercial and dramatic work.
