Bailey Stender has always had acting as a core part of her life, starting in musical theater at age 6 in Duluth, Minnesota and continuing until college, where she transitioned to TV and film.
Her earliest penchant to entertain was born from family time watching sitcoms - the bonding through laughter solidified Bailey's desire to inspire and make others laugh through her acting. After a dozen years of stage and singing experience buttressing a career that allowed her to escape depression while also providing an escape for her audiences, it was ironically while studying musical theater at Belmont University in Nashville that she transitioned to screen roles with global reach.
Flexing that comedy muscle, Bailey appeared on Disney's Bunk'd in 2021 and Paramount+'s iCarly in 2021-2023. She stepped into the role of associate producer while also starring in Red Sage Productions' 2020 mockumentary short film, "Fantasy Pony!" Then, Bailey completely switched genres playing mean girl Phoebe in the 2023 Paramount+ series "Wolf Pack," where she said she was inspired by the grounded and powerful performances of Sarah Michelle Gellar.
Bailey looks forward to a future producing films similar to "Everything, Everywhere, All at Once," that inspire, uplift, and also have the audience dying with laughter. She also wants to lead others into light outside of her career in entertainment. She openly shares about her personal journey from coping with her depression to embracing joy and loving life. You might see her skipping down the street, dancing through the store, or singing in the rain.
She's also a spiritual person, embracing meditation and journaling, while always actively connecting with her environment, be it through gratitude walks, rollerblading or time with friends. She actively advocates on social media for body positivity, feminism and equality, pledging, "As my platform grows, I will continue to amplify the voices of those who need and deserve to be heard." Just like TV and film helped bring Bailey out of dark places, she looks forward to making the world a better place by inspiring others to get involved in social justice and activism but also by laughing their worries away.
