BRIANNA PARADISO
Actor, Singer, Creative

Brianna Zhen Paradiso is an Asian American multi-hyphenate artist based in New York City. She trained at NYU's New Studio on Broadway, Stonestreet Studios, and the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute, showcasing her versatile talent on both stage and screen. She has performed at notable venues, delivering the National Anthem at Madison Square Garden and MetLife Stadium, as well as gracing the stage in productions like "Cabaret" with Tisch New Theatre, "As You Like It" as Celia at New Studio on Broadway, and "Gypsy" at Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute. As a recent graduate of the class of 2024, she looks forward to making her mark in the entertainment industry and pursuing her passions in film, TV, acting, and musical theater with dedication and flair.  

Growing up in Jersey City, NJ, Bri is a proud New Jerseyan, as shocking as that may be. She started singing at the age of six and continued to grow that passion, along with her love for acting and dancing, at High Tech High School in the musical theater major. In her daily life, she loves to indulge in a good guttural laugh—call her a jester if you will. You can often find her binging a good sitcom, indulging in questionable reality television, or getting lost in a gripping drama series. And as a Taurus, she brings a touch of stubborn determination to everything she does.
