One taco at a time.
In spring 2024, Belle began working with the Taco Bell Foundation, Biite, and her fellow scholars to develop a PSA. She worked with professional mentors, brainstormed story ideas, collaborated on the script, and flew to Los Angeles to do voice over work and filming. Read more about the experience below.
Belle has performed onstage and appeared in a few onscreen projects. Her special skills include ballroom dancing, intermediate ukelele, beginner's stage combat, basic piano, intermediate Spanish, a heel click, and eye-crossing! Belle loves working with kids and directing youth theatre camps. She jumps at opportunities to try new things - like a show in a garage! - and meet new people. She is a HUGE Disney fan and loves to travel.
