Emma Engle(I)
- Actress
Emma Renee Engle is an American Actress, Model and Dancer who was born on the 18th of May 2003, in Watertown NY, to Tonia Engle. She is the youngest of 5 girls and one brother. Before making her journey to California to pursue her dreams of acting at the young age of 7 years old, Emma spent her days growing up in the small community with a population of just 13,700 people in Seabrook Texas. Emma enjoyed her elementary school years at Big Springs Elementary School. Emma could often be found creating an audience for herself, so that she could perform her scripts, that she would spend hours writing herself . She was and is still very involved for her age. Very dedicated to everything she sets her mind too.
One of her real passions is working with the homeless people, always trying to make a difference.
At 7 years old Emma was invited to IMTA LA while attending Neal Hamil Agency to pursue her modeling career. Emma came to California in January 2012 to attend the 5 day competition. Walking away that year with Headshot of the Year, Swimsuit Model of the Year, Most Sought After Actresses of the year amongst many other great honors. After the competition Emma and her family returned home to Seabrook Texas, that is until many LA managers and agents contacted her about representation. At that point Emma and her family took a long hard look at her talent and decided that they believed in her as much as Hollywood did and they decided to take their chance on helping her chase her dream. Her single mom sold their home and everything they owned, packed up a UHAL and away they drove towards the bright lights with nothing more than that dream and a lot of hope and dedication.
The Engle family was informed that this would be a long shot and warned Emma that she would be up against tens of thousands of other children her age competing for the same roles. And that the talent increased by thousands more during pilot and episodic season. Within the first week of locating to California, Emma was scoring auditions left and right and immediately booked her first National commercial with LG. She was able to work with the very talented Tony Goldwyn. After booking this first national commercial she quickly started booking many national commercials and also her dream role beside Ariana Grande and Jennette McCurdy with the amazing creator Dan Schneider in Nickelodeons Sam And Cat ( see reel), giving her the long awaited accomplishment of becoming a SAG/ AFTRA member.
Emma moving to California was a decision that her family never thought twice about never looking back with no regrets.
Emma recently had the opportunity to work not once, but twice with everyone's favorite actor Rob Lowe and Fred Savage on the Grinder in 2015 and then again on Code Black as Kaya ( see reel) a young girl with a crush that is attacked by a shark on Malibu Beach.
Emma feels that once she has worked beside Adam Sandler, and she has walked across the stage at the Nickelodeon Choice Awards and The Oscars that she will have achieved her greatest goal in life.
Emma continues to live in Los Angeles California with her mother and three sisters, Hannah, Zoe and Kiara.
