Acting

Coming from Boston, MA to the upstate South Carolina and Beijing, China! At 12 years old, to fulfill a requirement for high school language, Tina started one on one Chinese lessons with a Taiwanese teacher who trained her in phonetics and language posture, and had lessons twice a week in a local Chinese Resturant. By 15 she was fluent in Mandarin Chinese, as well as American Sign Language.

Learning everything became a passion of hers: Chinese characters, iceskating, dance competitions and 4 theatrical performances a year she completed a 6 year degree in Acting, Linguistics and China studies (with a two semester break traveling the US with a performing arts group) and looked to Asia to gain some understanding of the film industry in the land where her heart felt moved to. Beijing China in 2010 afforded her a whole new market of international acting opportunities, which were both exciting and challenging.

Fast forward now to a decade of experience in the film industry in China, 3-6 major productions per year as either a Dialect coach, actress, or on-set interpreter, she brings a wealth of knowledge and savvy, honed by years on international productions and months on the road.
