Mishelle is a Vancouver based composer and sound designer whose work is centred around the integration of sound, music, and storytelling. She has an MFA in Musical Theatre Composition from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts, and a BFA in Acting from UBC.
Since gathering restrictions began in March of 2020, Mishelle has been fortunate to find multiple opportunities to make music safely - both through digital streaming work, and socially distant outdoor performances when possible. She has learned a great deal about audio storytelling through this time, and is deeply invested in continuing to find ways to make sound and music accessible through this challenging time.
Some recent projects include Good Things To Do - a digital storytelling experience through text and sound, The Quarantettes - a live and recorded project of poetry set to music, and Made in Canada - an EP of vibrant music written using the verbatim words of Latinx migrant farm workers. Mishelle is a multiple Jessie Award winner and nominee.
In addition to writing music, Mishelle enjoys painting, listening to podcasts, and riding her bicycle.
