Born and raised in Winter Park, Florida, Michelle Elise was brought up among the theatrical and performing arts communities. Inclined to love music, culture, science, and self expression, Michelle found herself at ease among them. With an extensive background and up bringing among the Philharmonic, the ballet, and Shakespearean theater, Michelle's roots allowed her to grow into her own style of creativity with a firm grasp on education and a great appreciation for the fine arts. Today, Michelle continues to study and work among the theatrical community but can be found spending most of her professional time among the film and commercial industries. In most of her free time, Michelle trains in competitive surfing, equestrian, and multiple other extreme motor and board sports. With a desire to further pursue her career in the cinema arts and stunt work, Michelle is now traveling and working consistently between Orlando, Florida and Hollywood, California as well as training and visiting with her surfing sponsor, Brian Bulkley ( former Pipleline Masters competitor and board designer) in San Clemente, California.
