interviews
Chelsea is an actress, director & writer from Los Angeles, California.
​
No stranger to storytelling, Chelsea's experience in film & tv over the last 20 years has been almost exclusively in front of the camera. Falling in love at a young age, with the magic of creating characters so deeply removed from her own experiences; discovering the beauty of collaboration, that can only be found on a film set.
She has developed a substantial acting career, appearing hit shows including:
Showtime’s SHAMELESS, Netflix drama 13 REASONS WHY, and FX's AMERICAN HORROR STORY. As well as guest starring roles on GREY'S ANATOMY, VEEP, THE GOOD DOCTOR, THE ROOKIE, NCIS, GOOD GIRLS and more.
​
Chelsea was nominated for Best Supporting Actress by the IFJA,
for her role in Anna Baumgarten's indie drama DISFLUENCY opposite Libe Barer (Sneaky Pete), Ariela Barer (How to Blow Up a Pipe Line) and Dylan Arnold (You, Oppenheimer). The film was recently acquired by Buffalo 8, coming to theaters in January 2025.
