BFA Acting

SHE/HER

Avis Russey is a NYC-based actor, musician, and writer. She is a passionate artist drawn to work that expands her curiosity, requires her vulnerability, and challenges her wit, seeing storytelling as the most crucial and effective tool for human connection. She brings unwavering enthusiasm to every project she is a part of and is deeply committed to creating work that every person can see themselves reflected in. If she isn’t performing, you’ll probably find her cooking an elaborate feast for everyone she knows or locking into a coloring book.
