hello!

My name is KC Wright, a Los Angeles-based actor and writer. I grew up in our Nation’s Capital (okay, suburbs of our Nation’s Capital) and made my professional debut as a teenager on DC’s incredible and diverse stages. I went on to earn my BFA from Carnegie Mellon University, and have been a sunny California girl ever since.
