Acting: Experience and Aspirations

Miri Elise is a professional actor currently located in Los Angeles, California. She has studied acting since she was in early elementary school at the University of Cincinnati’s College Conservatory of Music’s Preparatory Program. After continuing to train in Acting and Musical Theatre at CCM throughout high school, she chose to pursue her BFA in Musical Theatre at Slippery Rock University, minoring in Dance: Performance (Grad: May 2026).

Her dream career involves months of on-set, cat-filled trailers, playing shows with her original music, and out-of-the-blue movie musical/national tour/Broadway show announcements. She LOVES the dichotomy of the ultra-dramatic and ultra-unserious (much like who she is).

Current biggest influences (alphabetical): Anna Kendrick, Amy Poehler, Audrey Plaza, Ben Platt, Kristin Bell, and Lizzie McAlpine.
