Biografi
Bursting with passion for the arts, sunny and spirited California native Kristin Elliott is the go-to performer for high-energy roles. Born to shine, actor-dancer Elliott made an early entrance into performing, sprinting down the church aisle at age three to join the choir on stage. Her boundless energy found a perfect outlet in competitive gymnastics, cheerleading, dance, and musical theater at summer camps throughout her elementary and middle school years. In high school, her cheerleading team claimed multiple national titles in smaller divisions, later earning second place with her college squad at a major national competition. These impressive skills won her a cheerleading scholarship to the University of Memphis, a "life-changing experience." Kristin devoted a year to living and breathing cheerleading before deciding to refocus on acting.
Returning west, Kristin landed a swing role in multiple parts for the "Bring It On – The Musical" tour, merging her cheerleading, dance, and acting talents. She mastered the show during an intense three-week, five-day-a-week rehearsal period before hitting the road to perform in Denver, Houston, Dallas, and Fayetteville, Arkansas. Alongside this physical rigor, Kristin deepened her craft by studying acting with Michael Monks at Ivana Chubbuck’s studio and directly with Ivana herself. At the Stan Kirsch Studio, under Colleen Foy and Stan Kirsch, she gained insight into the business side and audition techniques.
Kristin’s dedication is paying off with roles in high-profile projects. She recently shared the screen with Emma Stone in "La La Land," an experience she cherished. In the short film "Spider and The Frog," starring William Kircher from "The Hobbit," she portrayed a hitman’s companion on the run, calling it a fantastic experience. Her part in the horror movie "Smiley" gave her a taste of a genre she loves—she’s a huge horror fan and thrives in scare-spoofs, admitting, “I LOVE Scream Queens!” Her credits also include appearances on Spike TV's "Tattoo Nightmares," webisodes like "Focus Group," and Eli Roth's Crypt TV '15 Second Scare'. Her commercial work features roles as a dancing nurse for American Career College, a cheerleader in AT&T ads, and a snooty ex-girlfriend for Braun Electronics. Kristin also enjoys hosting, with a recurring role on SoFlo Facebook (10 million followers!), where she once surprised fans with a box full of puppies.
With strong skills in Jazz Funk, Hip Hop, and Jazz dance, Kristin has taken on dance-heavy roles such as Diana Morales in "A Chorus Line" and Sally Brown in "You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown." A "Chicago" tour showcased both her bold personality and dance prowess. Her charming, raspy, good-fairy voice perfectly matches her petite, feminine, upbeat, and athletic persona, making her a natural fit for voice-over work. Exceptionally fit, Kristin’s back handspring talents are famously featured in Michael Bublé’s music video "It’s a Beautiful Day," where she performed handsprings behind a surprised Bublé for hours. She fondly recalls his kindness, noting, “He was so nice! He kept asking if I was OK.”
Kristin comes from an intriguing family—her father is a retired FBI agent, and she once accompanied him on surveillance missions. This background has equipped her with gun handling skills and stamina suited for action-packed shows like Quantico, NCIS, Orange Is The New Black, Prison Break, Blue Bloods, Law & Order SVU, and How to Get Away With Murder. Her comedic talents make her a natural fit for Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Two Broke Girls. Kristin’s effervescent, positive, and contagious energy lights up any set and screen. With her feisty, long-haired, bright-eyed charm reminiscent of role models Sandra Bullock and Julia Roberts, Kristin Elliott has set a high standard—and with her remarkable skills, she’s sure to surpass it.
