Actor Bio
I am an American actress and a comedy girl. I have taken part in number of community stage plays as the lead. I have done supporting & featured roles in films & independent film, and was the female lead of an feature length experimental film. I love acting, creating characters, & working on productions. I love to perform sketch comedy and write/direct that type of pieces as well. I like to do dramatic, comedic, well...any type of role. Ethnically, I fall into the broad South Asian/East Indian category and people do view me as having an "african, native, mexican, east indian, or a mixed look as well" though I don't understand what that has to do with the craft of acting. :-) Currently I am working on an experimental sketch observational humor project called Jelly Jam. I am prepared & ready to work.
