"Bianca is a talented actor with all the creativity, energy, and thoughtfulness to make her characters become who they were meant to be on the page and more. Bianca’s playful, open demeanor makes her an ideal collaborator. "-Candace Lee, Director of My Dear Elizabeth Robins
"I feel extremely lucky to have met and had the chance to work with Bianca. When unforeseen circumstances caused changes the day of the shoot, she was able to adjust her performance and truly save the film. She has amazing instincts and gladly takes on any challenges put her way. From auditions, through rehearsals, until the last day on set, Bianca’s enthusiasm, dedication and shining personality help to make the long and sometimes tedious process bearable. She is a talented performer who brings much more to set than just her character. I will always feel confident in recommending Bianca for other roles because I know if given the chance, she will succeed."
-Kassee Guerra, Director of Fortune Cookie
"Bianca is a gem of a performer. Her performance of my song 'If I Lose You Too' from Pucelandia was very moving and her acting in the show was consistently convincing"
-Sheldon Gartner, Composer of Pucelandia, the Pucical Musical
"It is always such a pleasure when I have the opportunity to work with Bianca. She is not only an incredibly talented actress, but is also a highly personable individual who makes work fun, rewarding, and stimulating.
Right off the bat, Bianca’s confidence and strength as a performer comes through. I met Bianca earlier this year when she starred in a short film of mine. When casting, she was the last scheduled audition, and by that point I was already prepared to cast the film. However, when Bianca walked into the room, she brought new life and vitality to the story, and instantly won me over.
I am most impressed by Bianca’s ability to make committed choices about her performance, and by her ability to find meaning in the work beyond the obvious. There is nothing cliché about Bianca; she pushes beyond an initial understanding of a script and comes up with brilliant, fresh ideas that ignites an excitement in the entire cast and crew, reminding us all why we love to tell stories.
For this reason and many others, she is a lifesaver on set. Her enthusiasm, talent, and professionalism inspires others, and helps maintain a creative working environment. She is always available to her co-stars, and is constantly working on building their chemistry together. While a standout actress on her own, Bianca is a performer who listens to her co-stars, and makes sure that each project is an ensemble piece, upholding the tradition of film as a collaborative art form.
It has been an absolute joy to work with Bianca on several occasions. With each collaboration, I find myself surprised and impressed by something new in her. Her dramatic and comedic range is nothing short of dynamic. With each role, she finds truth and authenticity, and brings such life and reality to each character. "
- Greg T. Gordon, Director of The Discovery, and Family Troubles
"Bianca’s love for the theater started in Kindergarten. She was a little blue bird in the short play "Little Green One". She fell in love right then and there. The script, the rehearsals, the excitement, the make up, the costumes, the cheering, the applause, they put stars in her eyes and the stars haven’t stopped shinning ever since. From then on, her entire life revolved around plays, music halls, dance shows, singing lessons, dance lessons and one big dream, New York- Broadway, and the big screen. When her high school counselor told her to think of getting a “real job”, she stood up a bit offended and with intense determination she answered “acting is my job”. The counselor replied, “ but you have to think of a backup job, so few people actually make it“. Bianca looked at her with even more determination and told her “ I do not need a back up job, and I will be one the few”. So at 18, she left our small village for New York, with two big pieces of luggage filled with dreams. I knew that she was going to be one of the few and I have never stopped believing in her."
