Kiwi on the Rise

Michelle Ang
This New Zealand native is certainly someone to know. At only 23, she's already accomplished quite a bit. She's gained acclaim around the world for her acting talents. She got her start on the New Zealand tv show "The Tribe" and gained further notoriety on Australian soap opera "Neighbors." You might recognize her stateside from a guest starring stint in the finale episode of "Xena: Warrior Princess." Still, through all this, she remains grounded and is currently studying at Victoria University in New Zealand with a double degree in Accounting and Commercial Law and Chemistry, while still actively pursuing her acting career in the US and abroad. She's another one of those people that just have an amazing energy about them. She's sweet and genuine, which is always a great find in a young actress. I look forward to many more appearances by Ang in the next few years.
