Hey !
My name is jaeleigh BurrisGrowing up in small-town Oklahoma, her dreams have always soared far past the “cowboy country”. She has chased every avenue of performing that she could get her hands on, never missing an opportunity to make people smile.
I am a recent graduate of Oklahoma City University with a BFA in Stage/Screen Acting. I am originally from Stillwater, Oklahoma, but am now located in Atlanta, Georgia. Throughout my life and career, I have centered myself through love and a strong foundation of faith.
In college, I balanced a life of full-time student/performer, 3 outside jobs, and the Event Coordinator for my sorority, Alpha Phi. While balancing numerous responsibilities and wearing many hats, I’ve consistently refined my craft, embraced new challenges, and developed extensive leadership skills through dedication, adaptability, and hard work.
While earning my degree, I had the privilege of working with various directors/production teams (whom I love & adore) that were responsible for some of the best roles I've ever stepped into, such as: D. Lance Marsh, Hal Kohlman, and Kris Kuss. My heart especially goes out to Mina Harker from Dracula: A Feminist Revenge Fantasy, and Nell Shaw from John Proctor is The Villain. If you would know more about my work, please check out my resume or gallery!
Outside of my career, I love crafting, embracing my inner cinephile, reading, being outside, and anywhere near the water! Some of my favorite things are snow globes, flowers, matcha, and my sweet friends! Thank ya for gettin’ to know me!
“I remember dancing & singing in front of my TV at age five, and now here I am doing it for a living. I am so grateful that this crazy dream of mine was put on my heart to become a reality. I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

My favorite movie is Aquamarine! I even love it so much that I got a starfish tattoo inspired by it behind my ear. Aqua wears starfish earrings, and they whisper sweet compliments to her. It’s like my tattoo is my own little cheerleader!
