Makenna's passion for acting blossomed at an early age, predating her ability to even spell the word 'theatre'. Her debut role as one of Cinderella's mice in kindergarten marked the beginning of her journey. Fast forward twelve years, Makenna portrayed Donna in "Mamma Mia," her final high school production before graduating.
Moving from the rainy city of Seattle to sunny Los Angeles to pursue a B.A. in Theatre Arts at Loyola Marymount University, Makenna has since secured roles in a feature film, a streaming series, and over 20 short films. Comedy is Makenna's jam. She is the funny, flirty, and sassy girl in your favorite show or movie. Having the privilege of making people laugh is Makenna's favorite part of being an actor.
Beyond acting, Makenna is a talented singer and pianist, which has fueled her passion for composing and songwriting. In 2023, Makenna's grandma passed away and left her mounds of sewing fabric. Makenna has since taught herself how to sew and plans to start a fashion line in honor of Mimi. In the spirit of moving to California, she has been learning how to surf and will need to continue learning because she sucks.
