Hi! I’m Cecilia.

I’m a New York City–based stage/film actor and singer, drawn to stories that live on the edge of something electric: Whether it’s chaotically comedic, devastatingly dramatic, or delightfully, unapologetically absurd. I like to create the kind of work that makes people laugh a little too loudly, sit in silence a little too long, or question everything on their way home.

Feel free to call me CC.

About Me

I’d like to thank my parents for gifting me a pink plastic princess guitar at the ripe age of 2. I would also like to apologize for all the hours they spent against their will watching me perform 4 variations of choreography to “Beauty and the Beast.” (If you ask them, they will tell you they loved it, but we all know the truth…) But I guess I should go back to thanking them. Because who would have thought that little pink guitar would be the catalyst for that little girl to grow up and pursue this not-so-little dream. 

I’m from a small town in Massachusetts, where I’ve lived all my life before moving to New York City. I am currently obtaining my BFA in Drama from NYU Tisch, and have studied at the Atlantic Acting School. When I’m not tucked away in the creative bliss of a dark theater (or performing 4 variations of choreography to “Beauty and the Beast”) I am most likely attempting to learn a random new skill, Google mapping the nearest beach, or listening to my new favorite song on loop. 

Whether it is chaotically comedic, devastatingly dramatic, or absolutely absurd, I create with roots grounded in immense passion.
