Grace Matias

Grace found her true passion as an actress on the set of a student film in NYC while working in advertising in NYC. After graduating Boston University with a bachelor's degree in Mass Communications, she explored different careers in NYC: media buyer for P&G, print media-planner, in-house PR manager for a video-game company, and cafe manager. (Cool fact: It's the one in which Meg Ryan's and Tom Hanks' characters meet in You've Got Mail!) Following her newfound calling, she worked in several independent films and industrials. Grace learned the juice for film and TV wasn't worth the squeeze in the city of broadway lights. After moving to LA, she is often cast as the multi-ethnic, exotic, asian or "ethnically ambiguous" actress. She booked roles on network television, commercials, and pilots. She produced a short film in 2010 and is completing a memoir. Very athletic - favorite sports include basketball, softball, racquetball, rock-climbing, jogging, and snowboarding. Mostly she spends her time doing Bikram yoga, paddleboarding, and volleyball. She enjoys reading, photography, and the fine arts. Also a new guitar student, having completed three original songs. Also an avid believer in meditation - the ultimate gateway to the soul. Show less «
