GET TO KNOW ME
My Background Hi, thanks for visiting! My name is Jaime Pla, and I'm an author and a screen, stage, and voice actor currently based in Los Angeles, California. I was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona so the desert is home for me. My storytelling journey began in high school but I fell in love with performance when I was a kid mimicking the wacky cartoon voices I heard on the TV. I graduated from the University of Arizona in 2020 with a BFA in Theatre with an emphasis in acting, and I published my first novel, The House of Wolves: The Tether, in 2022.
