Giselle

I am half Filipina- half Swiss (from Switzerland not Sweden OK?) I grew up all over the place...From Zurich (till I was 5) to Manila to New Jersey...Started working early in the entertainment scene and intend to pursue my creative endevours for the rest of my life. I moved to New York City in 2000---to search for a more meaningful fulfilment to my mundane showbiz life, and have grown leaps and bounds since then. I went to Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute by Union Square and had a blast discovering the masters such as Neil Simmon, Chekov, etc. I also learned how to bartend professionally, which has actually paid for my shoebox of an apartment at the time... I moved to Los Angeles shortly after and had to live in West Hollywood no less, where I was never harrassed on the street! Since then, my life has changed for the bettr.No more late night parties and gatherings. You'll find me at home, in my husband's or daughter's arms or holding my 5 month old in my arms... either watching Netflicks, or cooking, or simply spending quality time with my most cherished family. I never realized that your life truly becomes meaningful till you start becoming responsibly for other people. I enjoy the fact that it's not about me anymore, its about my man or my kids.Okay so many of you who have actually read this entire thing that don't have kids are probably lost and can't identify with me, but if you knew the old me--you won't even recognize the me now. A kind of peace has settled into my being that only motherhood can bring.But life is short, and there are so many passions under my belt. The desire to love abundantly..My friends know this of me, how I can be very giving of myself. My art, which is acting is what breathes fire in my soul, to portray characters that arre multi dimensional and complex is what I am skilled at most.I identify with my love for my home country--the beautiful islands of the Philippines and will continue to visit every chance I get. Plus, my mommy dearest still lives there, whom I look up to immensely. She was a single mom who gave more of herself that neccessary. So there's a peek into the woman I am, or have become in these past few years. If you, like me share a love for life, art and of course friends and family then there is no chance we won't get along! Happy surfing :)
