Hi, I’m Ella!

I am a New York based actor, performer, and teaching artist originally from Boulder, Colorado.

Business things: I received my BFA in Acting from Syracuse University. My performing and devising works have been seen at the Alvin Ailey Citigroup Theater, The 24 Hour Plays Off-Broadway, 59E59, and Manhattan Movement Arts Center.

But who am I?

  • a clownling

  • curious about gender performance

  • a teaching artist

  • complete goofball
