About
Our goal is to achieve a truthful acting performance that casting directors cannot deny.
I have been acting and performing ever since I was a child. I am an International Honorary Thespian and have won several awards for my acting.
I have a B.A. in Drama from UC Irvine and was awarded with the Clare Trevor School of the Arts award for my high achievement.
I've taken various acting courses at conservatories and studios in Hollywood from the most sought out coaches.
I can teach you the same things my teachers taught me for half the price.
I am a working actress. See: www.sheilatejada.com
I love how we can fully express different sides of ourselves through acting. Furthermore, we can gain compassion and empathy for characters unlike ourselves.
