Salli had a passion for acting at a very young age and began her career in community theatre and school plays in New York. She performed in many local shows and studied acting in her teen years. Upon graduating high school she moved into Manhattan and continued her acting studies both in New York City and London and began performing in professional theatre and doing student films and then independent films and formed a theatre company with some friends. She starred in over 10 films, but wasn't really making a living in her profession as they were more about the art and the "pay" was meals, travel expenses and a copy of the film. So after some coaxing she moved to Los Angeles. Instantly she landed the lead in a play and lots more indie films leading to getting an agent and finally a tv gig. Years later she has many tv credits and some larger film credits and was fortunate enough to break into the voiceover industry. Salli has earned her living as an actress on and off camera for well over a decade and hopes to continue doing so. She is also starting to write her own material and collaborate with others on her ideas. She is currently living in Los Angeles with her son and their cat.
