“Hey y'all! I'm Allie Gonino, actress, recording artist, yogin, writer, funny girl, curious, and adventurous. Let's chat!”
I grew up near Dallas, TX, but felt at a V young age that the uber Christian/Republican environment I was being raised in was not a vibrational match for me. I started playing violin and taking ballet when I was seven, started performing professionally as a singer and musician at the age of ten, and moved to Los Angeles with my mom to pursue a career in entertainment when I was sixteen.
I graduated high school early so I could focus entirely on my creative endeavors. I was in a girl group called The Stunners, (with Tinashe & Hayley Kiyoko). We toured with Justin Bieber in 2010, and disbanded shortly after, when I booked a series regular role on an ABC Family series called 'The Lying Game.'
But I won't delve too much into my whole resume. Feel free to Google me or look me up on IMDB. When I started getting spinal spasms in 2008, I had to give up dancing as much, and started shifting my focus towards acting, music, and then turned to yoga as an alternative. I'm passionate to learn as much as I can about healing, to help others through their depression because I've been there, and facilitate enlightening conversations.
My favorite topics include music, spirituality, feminism, social justice issues, alternative wellness, creativity, acting, overcoming depression, purpose, mission, zero-waste living, the entertainment industry, intimacy, education, yoga, and quantum physics.
