Olga (she/her) is a New York City based bilingual theater and film actor. From Queens, NY and the daughter of a Peruvian/Japanese father and a Bolivian mother, Olga's childhood was rich in color, people and words.
She learned from a young age there was no limit to what can be done if you pursue it wholeheartedly. With a strong work ethnic and a tenacity she thanks her parents for inspiring in her, she is always willing to go the extra mile to reach the next milestone.
Olga began to learn about acting in college. Since she couldn’t afford to go to an acting school, she would watch YouTube videos, read books, meet other actors to practice scenes, watch actors’ performances, find advice or quotes to learn from… Anything that she could potentially learn from she looked for. During that time, she received advice from Heidi Miami Marshall to create her own work. So she did. Olga went on to co-direct and assist in writing her first short, Love Thy Neighbor.
She is currently taking acting classes at Mark Evans Studio. She is also learning how to dance. It is absolutely terrifying... and uh a little embarrassing.
Despite what roles may seem 'right' for her, Olga is interested in doing a range of characters that may at first glance may not seem suitable for her. She craves for and thrives in a challenge.
Olga does not know what is meant for her in this world but she will try her best to make her time here worth it.
