CHIARA SOLTANI
About
Born in New York City, Chiara pursued a career in ballet from the age of ten to eighteen, training at renowned schools across the globe such as the Royal Ballet School and Canada’s National Ballet School. After leaving the dance world, she discovered her love for the craft of acting as a vehicle for exploring humanity. You’ll find her across stage and screen as the single-minded perfectionist with a biting sarcasm and a hot temper, whose guarded exterior shields a dark past. Think the teenage offspring of The Bear's Carmy Berzatto, Gilmore Girls' Paris Geller, and Aubrey Plaza.
