​

Starting off as a playwright and director, Shiona creates compelling narratives exploring identity and belonging, drawing from her experiences as a global nomad and third culture kid.

Her creative journey was influenced by her father's recovery from a brain injury, inspiring her to break free from generational patterns and pursue a path blending artistic expression with personal growth.

  • Acting in films, commercials, and voice-over projects

  • Writing poetry and plays

  • Enneagram coaching and elderly counseling

  • Teaching aerial yoga

​

Her upcoming poetry collection, Searching Home, reflects on her global travels and invites readers to explore themes of self-discovery and connection.

​

Shiona's acting career includes national commercials for AAA, Apple Game, and Wee Delivery, as well as a role in Warner Brothers' Vacation Friends 2. She received the PIFF Best Actress Award at the 2024 Pasadena Film Festival for her performance in Hello, Goodbye.

​

When not working, Shiona enjoys baking plant-based treats, reading, and spending time outdoors. She believes in the power of genuine connections and the wisdom gained through life's challenges.
