Michelle Lamelza

Michelle Lamelza was raised in Philadelphia, PA with her identical twin sister Melissa and older brother. Michelle has always had a passion for acting and obtained a BA degree in Theatre Arts from East Carolina University, NC, with a minor in Exercise & Sport Science. Work ended up transferring Michelle to Myrtle Beach, SC. As much as she loved the beach, she had decided it was best to go where all of the action was which was when she relocated to New York City.

After acting as the manager for Hooters for several years, she left this role in order to find a more flexible job so that she could spend more time acting. She has appeared as an uncredited extra in several major Hollywood productions and has also appeared in a number of independent such as, The Project (2010), Ascot Alley (2010) and more recently, After the Torment (2011) where she plays Sydney, one of the two leads. Both "Ascot Alley" and "After The Torment" had granted her various "Best Actress" nominations, as well as screenings at various festivals across the U.S., including Boston, California, New York, Alabama, and Las Vegas.

In addition to all of this, she was cast as Lisa Grayson in Brandon Allen Powell's feature length production of, Trial by Self (2011).
