ミーシャ・ブルックスは、型破りの女優で、ハーバード大学機械工学学科卒業、MIT でヒューマノイド ロボット工学、人工装具、ヒューマン インターフェイスを専攻していた。しかし、メカニカルエンジニアから転身して現在、女優とモデルとして大活。まさに才色兼備の俳優だ。米国のボストン市で生まれ育ち、子供の頃は奈良県で暮らしていたので日本語がペラペラ。小学生時代からショークワイア、ジャズ、タップ、エレキギターレッスンを始めた。音楽だけでなく大学時代は400m と 4x4 リレーのディビジョン 1 トラック選手として出場してスポーツも得意だ。経歴の半分を日本で過ごした彼女は、日本を第二の故郷と考えている。

彼女は常に「夢を現実化にしよう」をモットーに頑張ってきた。人を動かすものが何なのかを知りたいと思い、演技に夢中。女優の技を極めようと有名な演技コーチのAnthony Abeson、Lesly Kahn、Bob Krakower、Sharon Chattenに師事し、 世界中有名な即興とコント劇場と演劇学校Upright Citizens Brigadeで訓練も受けた。

全米大ヒットの「Billions」などのテレビ番組に出演。今度、Brooke Shields、Luis Guzman、Tao Okamoto、Sandra Bernhard、Brandon Routhと一緒に近日公開予定の長編映画「Out of Order!」にも出演。

I’m fluent in Japanese! はい、日本語ペラペラです！ Intersections and the human story inspire me. I have a passion for intertwining digital and physical worlds from ideas into reality. I am particularly excited by technology that pushes the limits of the human experience (Hello Sci-Fi and Fantasy!). I love working with teams who have just as much drive to make a positive impact on the world as I do.  — Meisha
