Charli Quevedo's first love is acting. However she is also a team writer for two projects that are currently in pre-production. She has written several films and worked on set as a Script Supervisor. She currently resides in Los Angeles. Her main goal in life is to spread love to the rest of the world through her vulnerable and sincere acting. "We give our audience the freedom to empathize with our characters no matter how 'good' or 'evil' they may seem. As our audience falls in love or disdain with our characters, we can change the world," she said while working with Director Gary Elmore.
Charli recently graduated Summa Cum Laude, with honors, from the Entertainment Arts Department at The Los Angeles Film School. She spends her free time honing her craft, studying, supporting and teaching her young children everything she can about life, watching as many movies and shows as she can get her hands on, dancing, swimming, helping others, and reading. What may surprise you is her love for the nerdy, finer things in life such as Harry Potter, Star Wars, and Lord of the Rings.
