Overview
About Me
Hi! I'm currently based in Madrid, where my journey began as a university exchange student. I later returned to pursue independent postgraduate studies in modern art, which deepened my passion for creativity and expression.
Eventually, I found my way into the world of acting, studying performance at the Madrid Film Institute. Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to tour across Spain as a stage actress, performing in both Spanish theatre productions and festivals.
Now, I work as both an actress and content creator, combining my love for storytelling with digital media. I’m passionate about travel, cinema, yoga, and all things that nourish the mind and soul.
Currently dreaming up my next chapter — planning to spend some time living in Bali next year (can’t wait!).

Music, Movies, and Books
🎬 Some of my favorites are La elegancia del erizo, The Pianist, Malèna (Italy), Animal (Argentina), and Druk (Denmark).
🎧 I’m into jazz, techno, and experimental sounds — and I’m absolutely obsessed with Portishead.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One of the things I’m most proud of is that, as an Asian actress, my very first theater performance took place at the Mérida International Classical Theatre Festival. Since then, I’ve performed in several national theaters across Spain, and became the first Asian actress to perform on the main stage (Sala Principal) of Spain’s National Theatre.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love swapping stories and sharing interesting experiences from my travels. Whether it’s funny moments, cultural surprises, or just cool things I’ve learned along the way, I’m always up for a good chat. I also enjoy talking about life, personal growth, and anything that sparks curiosity. It’s these kinds of conversations that make meeting new people so special.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I love sharing interesting stories with my hosts — from personal travel adventures to cultural insights. I’m also really into topics related to mind, body, and spirit, such as mindfulness, yoga, and personal growth. Whether it’s exchanging life experiences, discussing favorite books and films, or exploring deeper conversations about wellbeing and creativity, I enjoy connecting on many levels. I believe these shared moments make travel even more enriching and memorable
