Giselle Miller

Giselle Miller is a Caribbean-born writer, actor, and filmmaker living in Vancouver B.C.. She has had the privilege of living in Jamaica, the United States and Canada which have all informed her unique perspective of the world and translates into her work on the page and on screen. She comes from a large family of over 25 aunts and uncles and more than 100 cousins, many of whom reside in different parts of the world. Giselle fell in love with storytelling at a very young age and won her first writing competition at the age of 13. Two of her feature-length screenplays have placed as quarter finalists in the Atlanta Film Festival Screenplay competition and the Inroads Fellowship. After completing an MFA in Creative Writing at UBC, she went on to write and direct three short films as well as her first web series "Young, Single and Black" that follows six Black millennials as they navigate love, sex, relationships and identity in Vancouver. Giselle is also the writer, director and producer of the feature "Dear Dija," a drama about how a marriage is broken down and rebuilt following the loss of a child to overdose.
