Hey there, I’m Melissa Center. I’m an actor, filmmaker & “social entrepreneur” working and living in Hollywood.

Ever since my parents took me to see ET & The Nutcracker, I knew my destiny was to work in Showbiz. As a child with an active imagination & a penchant for song and dance, I LOVED to perform! Those passions coupled with my bright mind led me to seek excellence in life as an actor, creator, and entrepreneur. My journey has taken me from touring A Chorus Line to originating a one-woman show to pioneering a digital series to recurring on Grey’s Anatomy to creating award-winning films to coaching & advocating for Women’s Rights to co-founding a company Whole Self Systems + Whole Self Stories, dedicated to empowering women & diverse voices to bring their authentic stories to the world. Thank you for visiting me here!

MUCH LOVE,
M
