About Me

Hello and welcome! My name is Anya; and I am a musical theatre actress/technician from Houston, Texas!

Growing up as a first-generation American in a Russian-Ukrainian household, I was given an incredible opportunity to use theatre and storytelling to express myself. After performing in my first Russian Musical Theatre production at the age of five playing a baby goat named after the solfege syllable Fa while wearing a fur costume and jazz shoes, I was immediately hooked.

The early passion I had for theatre continually persisted, and I recently graduated from Waldorf University with Bachelor of Arts degrees in Musical Theatre and Theatre Performance! I currently reside in Lanesboro, Minnesota and will be working there as an apprentice at the Commonweal Theatre Company for the 2024-2025 season!

Experiencing collegiate theatre in a Northern Iowa small school environment for the past 4 years has had its challenges, but I was also able to gain both acting AND technical experiences! Besides performing, I have stage managed for 4 productions in the past 4 years and also have choreographed for The Addams Family and Bright Star! Getting to lead my peers and the rest of the communities I have gotten to know from kindergarten to college is one of the few aspects of theatre I love the most!

In my free time, you can catch me: traveling, reading, swimming, creating and watching TikToks, going to concerts, and never missing an opportunity to talk about Harry Styles and Taylor Swift.

Here’s a sneak peek of what you’ll see from me!
