Alexia Jasmene is a queer trans actor/musician/comedian/poet who believes in the power of stories to open the hardest minds and soften the hardest hearts. You can hear her voice as Valeria in the English dub of “Veneno” on Max, formerly HBOMax, or you may have seen her perform her self-written role of Dawn Langley Simmons in both renditions of “Tales of the Trancestors.” She’s worked in several theaters in Chicago, and today can be found working in Los Angeles on her queer western passion project, performing stand-up or performing her music or poems. Whichever medium she uses, Alexia hopes her work as a storyteller brings joy and healing to those it resonates with, wherever they may be in their journey.
