Shannon Gisela

Shannon Gisela is a South Florida native, born and raised by her Venezuelan mother and Irish father. She loved playing pretend as a child, and really never grew out of that love. She tried, and in that pursuit, she got her B.S. in Psychology at the University of Central Florida, but never stopped thinking about the Intro to Acting class she took her sophomore year. She was part of the Improv Academy at UCF and taught Intro to Improv, and upon graduating, performed on the largest Improv stage in Orlando alongside professionals. She decided to waste no time and the week after graduating, she ditched the idea of grad school and has been exploring how to professionally play pretend ever since with various teachers and casting directors all across the country.
