Hi, I’m Lia — an actor and producer based in Seattle, WA.
After several years abroad and completing my Masters in Film Studies from University College London, I returned to Seattle to pursue acting. Specifically, I came back with the intention to practically interact with the theories and topics of Asian Americanness I’d explored in my Master’s dissertation.
But the performing arts have never defined me as a person or artist, and my passion for creative, informed storytelling guides all of my work. I identify most as “a Modern Day Storyteller.” The intersections of food, design, and community are lifelong interests, manifesting in a multitude of platforms. My editorial writing and photography have been published in 425 Magazine and South Sound Magazine. I’ve also worked in the realm of visual arts and small business, working as a digital content specialist, creative director, and marketing & brand manager.
