Amelia immigrated to the United States from England, and quickly found a sense of belonging within theatre. She grew up in a theatre that pushes youth to study both the backstage magic as well as shine onstage, and started out her theatre career by studying and heavily pursuing acting. She stage managed her first show in 2013 and fell in love with the fast-paced, problem solving position. As she continued to stage manage shows, she soon found herself backstage more often than onstage and decided to make the switch. Amelia directed her first youth show in 2014, and now strives to make theatre a positive place of expression for as many youth as she can.

​When she finds free time, Amelia spends it volunteering for her local Planned Parenthood and Constellation Cat Cafe, reading Neil Gaiman, and learning about raising goats.  She has also recently taken up teaching herself the violin; the neighbors and her cat are less thrilled about it than she is.
