Belle Le (she/her) was born in Saigon, Vietnam and immigrated to San Jose, California at two and a half years old. Raised in the Bay Area, her love for storytelling and the arts bloomed from a childhood full of weekly family karaoke, "Teletubbies" crafts, and "Paris by Night" (ask any Vietnamese person).
Belle is in love with people, the sun and her three small dogs. From a young age, she had been fascinated by the human mind and how our unique experiences make us so special. She thought she was on the path to become a psychologist, however, her dreams came true when she discovered that acting explores the human psyche and behavior from a creative and expressive perspective — which makes way more sense to her brain. She is passionate about telling Asian stories and creating art that drives conversation and change, specifically about social rights and mental health advocacy. She is hopeful and determined for a more empathetic and unprejudiced future and is very excited to join the movement from within the industry.
During her time at UNCSA, Belle has played Lady Nijo/Win in "Top Girls" by Caryl Churchill, Terri in "Neaptide" by Sarah Daniels, and Dorrie in "How to Make Friends…" by Halley Feiffer. She will be graduating with a B.F.A. in Drama in spring of 2022.
