Ellen Schwartz is a multilingual teacher/trainer/tour-guide who has always channeled her natural talent for performing into whatever she does. Whether on stage, in front of a camera, speaking to a group of students, leading tours, or doing voice-overs for EFL courses, these creative outlets have brought her more joy and reward that her “day jobs”. As singer in the World Harmony Chorus and dancer in Jubilee American Dance Theater, she comes alive on stage, and regularly creates “characters” as a period dancer in vintage costumed events. When not performing, you can find her walking on a peaceful wooded trail, riding along the Bay, or getting grounded on her yoga mat.

Recently, Ellen has been honing her natural talents for performing, and has landed enjoyable small roles in photo, commercial, industrial, and film shoots, thanks to her cheerful personality, photogenic presence, and natural warmth. She is working on expanding her range and gaining practical experience in front of a camera, and looks forward to landing larger and more frequent roles in a variety of realms and locations; and her big dream is to be cast in a large-scale period drama on film or television someday soon!
