Jaden Koller

Upon discovering my love for being in front of the camera, my parents suggested I audition for the spring play at the local children’s theatre, which is how I stumbled into the theatre world. Fortunately, I got cast in the play and acted for the first time at age 14, playing the role of Sampson in Romeo and Juliet. From that point on, I fell in love with theatre, both on and off stage, and knew I wanted to pursue it in my future. I studied the different areas of theatre, growing to love directing, acting, stage management, and stage makeup. Now at the age of 22, I have recently graduated from the University of Florida as a Theatre and Media Production, Management, and Technology dual degree student. These majors have allowed me to further cultivate my creativity and individuality while still pursing the passions I developed as a young teenager. Despite these interests filling most of my time, I also have many other hobbies that I enjoy. Some of my favorite things to do are read fiction novels, look for shark teeth on the beach, put together jigsaw puzzles, and be outside in the sun. I also love to create art and express myself through my work. You can find examples of my creations on the portfolio page.
