Marissa Zumbo was born in Chicago but has lived in Florida most of her life. She has always had an interest in show business since she was seven. After years of drama class she was accepted into an arts high school in Fort Myers where she was a theatre major.

Now she attends UCF as a creative writing major and film minor. She's also a member of Art's Sake Acting Studio. Acting and writing are her two great loves so she's determined to follow both of these paths and see what they bring. Her goal is to create stories and characters that people identify with. 

"Magic is believing in yourself. If you can do that, you can make anything happen."

- Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
