My name is Joanne Nguyen and I was born and raised in San Jose, California. I am Vietnamese-American and I speak English, Vietnamese and Spanish. I began acting when I was 12 years old in my sixth grade play. I quickly fell in love with it and knew that this was my ultimate career goal in life. Since graduating from UCLA, I began auditioning for local commercials and New Media projects.

​

I am often cast as the girlfriend, girl-next-door, teacher, Vietnamese immigrant and victim.
