Trica Jo Hoffman is an extremely active actor/singer/dancer/volunteer/traveler/athlete/model/dare devil. She was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana. At the age of six, her family of four quickly turned into a family of seven after a tragic incident occurred. Although five siblings could be a bit crazy at times, she would be a completely different person if it weren't for the adoption and she wouldn't change it for the world. Tricia learned the importance of dedication and perseverance early on through years of intense gymnastics training and quickly became involved in every sport and activity she possibly could. After years of voice lessons and dance classes she decided to audition for her first musical where she booked the lead role. She quickly immersed herself in her newfound passion of musical theatre and was accepted into the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts, which then led her to a college scholarship at the Hartt School of Performing Arts. Two years later she transferred to the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Los Angeles, California where she has been working in the film and print industry for the last seven years. In the summer of August 29th, 2005, Hurricane Katrina paid New Orleans a visit. After evacuating, she and her family were fixated on the television screen when it was confirmed their house was submerged in water containing gas, waste, human remains, amongst other things. Not being allowed back into the city of New Orleans, she decided to help others who needed it by going to LSU and helping people being brought in from the devastated areas. Cries of loss, terror, anger, and hope surrounded her. Her life was forever changed. She lost all of her pictures, clothes, and many keepsakes, but was lucky enough to still have her family, her friends, her health, and her faith. However, a year later her parents decided to divorce which was extremely difficult for her to cope with. When times are tough, Tricia focuses on helping those in need to remind herself just how fortunate she really is. She is actively involved with many charities and finds comfort in knowing she is able to help the less fortunate. Tricia was finally seeing her hard work pay off in the film and print industry and she was happy and working diligently to improve her talents. She was traveling for work and loved being adventurous and living every minute of her life to the fullest. On June 4, 2011, she was involved in a life threatening jet ski accident which caused her to stop working completely for almost a year. Dealing with surgeries, bed rest, and continued complications throughout the healing process, it was then that she had time to realize the important things in her life and what she wanted most out of it. Acting has always been her passion and this made her want to fight even harder to prove herself even if it meant starting all over. Almost a year after her accident she booked her very first audition back. She would play the lead role in a heart wrenching story dealing with child molestation and abandonment amongst other heavy issues. Tricia completely immersed herself in the script taking her character to extremely intense places both mentally and physically. It was through this filming process that she decided nothing can stop her and her passion for her craft.
