From Federal Way, WA. Beginning anew in Davis, CA.
Michelle grew up in Washington state until deciding to move to Davis, California for University. She attended UC Davis from 2017 to 2021, graduating in Cinematography and Digital Media and Communication (double major). After four years at school, she used her free time as a chance to create visual stories by acting in short films with her fellow friends and students at UC Davis.
During those four years at University, Michelle was urged by friends to see a doctor about her constant pain she had been complaining about. She finally took their advice and underwent years of testing (that are still ongoing) and has been diagnosed with chronic pain, chronic fatigue, and fibromyalgia. While her physical abilities have been an obstacle for her, she continues to push on to create the art that she loves so dearly, filmmaking and acting.
Michelle has been a part of many award-winning short films and has been individually recognized through a nomination for best supporting actress by the INDIE SHORT FEST Los Angeles international film festival.
Michelle strives to create impactful and educational art that spreads awareness of the topics she holds close to her heart- all the while making it entertaining and engaging to the viewer. She is a determined woman that creates her own opportunities when none are available for her (shown through her writing, producing, and starring in her new short film that can be seen on the COMING SOON page on this website).
While strangers can be intimidating, Michelle looks forward to meeting and speaking with an eclectic group of remarkable individuals that wish to create art with her. Feel free to get to know her and contact her through this website!
