Meet our Magical Cast Members!

Hi, I'm Loni M.

I've enjoyed dressing up as characters ever since I was a little girl. My heads always been in the clouds and I've surrounded myself in the world of art, imagination and fantasy. I had been working behind the scenes as a makeup artist for the past 25+ years, having not one clue that I would one day be living my dream portraying a variety of cartoon characters. I started my acting career working for a princess party company in 2013 and have put my heart into it ever since. I also have worked as a special needs assistant teacher for Benicia Unified School District, & I am the creator of Magical Health Coach.

Hi, I'm Adam S.

Hi! I’m Adam. Ever since I was younger, I enjoyed acting. I graduated from an actor’s training program to refine my craft. I have been in countless musicals and plays, most often landing leading roles. I have a great deal of experience with film acting as well. One of my strong suits is improvisational acting, and I’ve been in an improvisational acting troupe since 2009. As a current substitute teacher of Fairfield-Suisun Unified & past Special Needs educator, I have worked with kids of all ages. I am always thrilled to bring smiles to peoples’ faces, whenever I perform.

Hi, I'm Deanna B

I am currently a college student studying fashion design at The University of Cincinnati, when I’m in school I work behind the scenes to create magic for all of you. I’ve been performing my whole life, playing roles including Velma (Chicago) Ariel (The Little Mermaid), Lily (Anastasia), and Val (A Chorus Line). I’ve been working with kids for years as a nanny, teacher’s assistant, and camp counselor. Several years ago I started doing character events and kids parties and immediately loved it. Seeing the smile on people’s faces when they see their favorite character always brightens my day, so I am thrilled to be a part of this cast bringing joy to kids.

Hi, I'm August W

Working as a party character has been a dream job of mine since I was young. I love performing and providing a fun experience for both the kids and adults. I was involved in my high school theater program and I was previously in college working towards a degree in musical theater. I plan to go back within the next year. Some of my favorite roles have been being a swing for Into The Woods and Arlie from Getting Out.

Hi, I'm Teslay M

Teslay started her career as a mascot character, where she discovered that she had a knack for making children and adults alike smile! She was prompted to join My Once Upon a Time by a fellow cast member who worked with her as a mascot and she is very grateful for the opportunity to live out her princess fantasy! Teslay is currently training as an EMT and plans to go into paramedics; she hopes to always keep a sprinkle of pixie dust in her pocket and a smile on her face!

Hi, I'm Alec H

Hi I’m Alec Home. I’ve performed with various theater groups over the past six years, namely the Peter Pan Foundation, and I like being able to express myself through any character I can connect with. I am excited to be a part of the My Once Upon a Time team so I can further my passion within this group of talented individuals.

Hi, I'm Emma W

I’m currently a student at University, majoring in Communications and Media Studies and minoring in Graphic Design.

I have been working in child care off and on for the past seven years, caring for children between the ages of three to twelve. I use what I’ve learned from my past work experience and apply it to each event I attend. At each event, I strive to create a fun and engaging experience for all attendees, young and old.

It wasn’t until my senior year of highschool that I embraced my flare for the dramatic, and began performing in theater. In college, I continued this passion, both performing in several plays and taking various acting classes. I’m an experienced singer, a well versed actor and an ameateur acrobat.

I love being a part of My Once Upon A Time because it brings so many of my passions together. Working as a cast member has been the accumulation of so many of the things that I enjoy in life, whether it be acting, or bringing joy to a child’s day.

Hi I'm Lovisa L

I've been dreaming of portraying fairytale characters I admire since childhood. Making costumes since 2011 it was an excellent creative outlet for all my favorite hobbies, (sewing, painting, crafting, sculpting and modeling.) But my favorite part is getting to share the wonder and joy that with meeting your fictional hero in real life. I am so thrilled to be working with My Once Upon a Time to make every special event a little more magical.

Hi, I'm Erin B

I've been performing characters for children's parties for the past 5 years, and it's such a dream come true! I've also done on-stage performance with Lyric Theatre and UCSD, on-camera acting with Lucky 9 Studios and 373 Media, and voice acting for Stanford Medicine, Marmalade Media, Court Jester Productions, and Fluffy Cloud Syndrome. I adore cats (especially my little black cats Zoe and Ella), computer programming, mathematics, circus arts, and linguistics!

Hi, I'm Ellie R

When I was 10, I used to watch “how to become a Disney Princess” videos under the covers late at night. I’ve always had a great connection with little kids of all neurodiverse spectrums as well as a performing background in musical theater. To say this job is perfect for me is an understatement. Singing is one of my favorite things to do, and nothing’s better than a good Disney song. I’m a highschool student in the Alamo/Danville Area and part of the Starlight Theater Company located in Martinez. If I had to pick a princess to best represent me I would choose Belle. She’s intelligent, courageous, soft spoken, and has a heart of gold. Those are all the qualities I live by and strive to strengthen in these years of young adulthood.

Hi, I'm Marco G

Marco was actually bitten by a spider when he was a kid so naturally, he is our Solano Spider-hero! Marco has been cosplaying for over 10 years. He takes his super hero job very seriously and never breaks out of character or takes off his mask. As a healthcare professional, Marco is all about giving back to the community, and making families smile! He is a father of 2, and enjoys spending time with his cosplay family.

Hi, I'm Chris L

I absolutely enjoy acting. I have been part of stage productions and concert bands since I was a child. I also love seeing the bright smiles of all the children as well as people of all ages when we come out and give our best performance every time we go out, not only because it’s what we do, but because we love to do it. I take inspiration from the characters I love and from the portrayals of stage and movie actors, voice actors, and of course the theme park performers that completely embody the characters they play. That is why I love being part of a company that shares the passion of the magic we bring. Our audience makes us, and that is the magic that we feel and bring back to them all.

Hi, I'm Jessica D

Ever since I was a kid, I’ve always enjoyed entertaining people and dressing up as different characters, especially anime.

I’ve been doing acting since I was thirteen years old and have been working non-stop ever since, mostly doing film. I enjoy getting immersed into a character and love challenging myself with different roles I take, even when I do the uncomfortable.

Now, I am currently attending a junior college and majoring in ASL-English Interpreting and I’m very good at juggling my work and school schedule around, when need be.

Since joining My Once Upon a Time, I’ve met some of the coolest cosplayers/cast members I’ve encountered. I am so glad to be a part of this wonderful community of people!

Hi, I'm Alexander L

Hello my name is Alexander. I have enjoyed creating characters since I was a young lad. It became more evident when I was in middle school, when I started filming movies with my friends. In 2009 I created my first full Batman cosplay. My troupe and I filmed a movie we later posted on youtube. After that I wanted to learn more about cosplaying, acting, and production. It led me to conventions where I met like minded people who showed me there is even more to becoming a character than just the outfit you wear and what is in the movies. I entered a cosplay competition blindly not expecting to win but I won an award. A month later I was approached by My Once Upon a Time cast members during an event I was working at and asked if I would like to work for the company. I am excited to join in the adventures with the company and I am looking forward to the future.

Hi, I'm Karin W

Hi, I’m Karin! I’m a recent college graduate with a BA for Transfer in Theatre Arts and Costuming. I’ve always loved playing dress up, singing, dancing, and acting, and started cosplaying when I was 13. I helped create a beginner princess company when I was a teenager, and I fell in love with character performing! From styling magical hairdos, to sewing ball gowns, to helping make magic at parties and events, I love everything about working with this wonderful company. Seeing the look of wonder on the faces of children both young and young at heart when they see their favorite character is the magic that makes me feel truly fulfilled.

Hi, I'm Brittany S

Greetings and salutations, fellow friends and fiends. My name is Brittany, but you can call me Bazzinga, your maiden of mystery and mayhem. I take great joy in working with my fellow mystical travelers, from this realm - and beyond. You’ll usually find me behind the scenes - the phantom of the keyboard, the wrangler of artists; even the time keeper of chaos. You’ll know me well and not at all. Pray our words remain jovial, or else I may have to bring down the mayhem, instead of the magic. You have been warned.

P.S. Always tip your bartender.
