Heisann! [hæısɅn]

 

Annette; Annet-te [ƏnetƏ] ♀︎. Norwegian/American/German, but my heart beats for Norway. Born and raised in a trilingual and culture-obsessed household in Bergen, Norway, but I call New York City home now.

 

My journey in performing started at the age of three when I was given my first violin. But when my mother realized she didn't know what to do with a child who had an abundance of energy who could never sit still,  she had no choice but to enroll me in ballet school, which paved the way to singing and acting. My spirited sense of being has to this day not faded, and I bring it with me to every performance, rehearsal and audition.

Often I feel like I have been born into the wrong era. Even though I love any genre of storytelling, my love for Shakespeare, Chekhov and Jane Austen is engraved in me, and I will always look to them for passion and motivation. But do not fret, you will not only see me in corsets and petticoats. You might also catch a glimpse of me as a futuristic human android, the girl next door, law student or medical intern.
