Ashli Auguillard (AKA Ashli with an "i") is an actor from the small town of Breaux Bridge, Louisiana. She's proudly the eldest of 6 siblings, raised by a strong mother (Kia Auguillard) who taught her integrity and resilience. Tall, athletic and vivacious, she's a force with Creole, West African and Native American heritage. She is adept at regional and international accents and dialects, giving life to a wide range of characters.
Ashli stands out as a new comedic face on HBO's Curb Your Enthusiasm (2021), holding her own across Larry David, Lucy Liu, and other heavy hitters. She also has guest-starring and recurring roles on USA Network, BET, Hallmark Channel, Facebook Watch, and Screambox TV. In addition to her acting skills, she is a certified tactical shooter and wire stunt pro, with special skills including stand-up comedy, improv, singing, rapping, dancing, and volleyball.
History: Growing up, Ashli lived in poverty, so her route to the arts was through academics. Her perfect grades earned her a seat in the state's gifted program (GPGC) at age 11, where she garnered her first theatrical role in the stage production of "The Miser." One year later, she would land the lead role in the production of "Here We Sit," also through GPGC. She completed the program after three years, then reignited her passion in high school, where she became a popular member of the drama club, winning tournaments for her racy monologues from "The Colored Museum" and "Live and in Color."
At 17, she moved to Nevada alone for college at UNLV, where she landed the role of "Juanita Sims" in the production of "For Colored Girls Who've Considered Suicide." She would soon return to Louisiana to attend LSU, double majoring in biology and theatre. Ashli finally made the bold move to California in late 2014 (with her beloved dog Oreo) to further her acting training, studying at the Baron Brown Studio in their intensive 2-year Meisner program. After her training, she was selected by an industry masterclass panel for her live portrayal of "Cleo" in "Set It Off," the performance that caught the attention of talent manager Michelle Zeitlin.
Ashli continues to be managed by Michelle Zeitlin, is repped theatrically by SDB Partners, commercially by Taylor Talent Services, and repped for local hire work in the Southeast by Del Corral and Associates.
