Meet Our Board

Born and raised in New York, Actor, Writer and Artist, Ashley/Ashli has always prided herself on being well-rounded, which is what brought her to USC as a BA Acting Emphasis major, Screenwriting minor on the pre-law track.

​

"Founding WAG was a total heart project intended to marry my love of both fields, Acting and Screenwriting. With years of theatrical experience and prior training at the NYFA in both LA and NY, I hope to one day be a professional actor, writer and potentially lawyer. I believe with ambition, there's nothing you can't do. I am so proud to be able to share WAG with all of you."

Welcome to USC WAG.

Hey!  My name is Judah Adkins, I'm a junior from Las Vegas, Nevada, currently majoring in Narrative Studies but about to make the switch into Cinematic and Media Studies in SCA and minor in the Entertainment Industry.  I currently hold a position with USC Annenberg as a "Narrative Tagger", marking down important and upcoming narratives across genres that should be highlighted in media.  Though I want to work multiple roles in the entertainment industry, my main goal is to eventually become an acclaimed screenwriter and director.  To further that, this upcoming winter and spring I am looking to film a few of my screenplays I'm working on with friends, and hopefully submit them in local film competitions.  Joining WAG, I'm excited to have the opportunity to meet and collaborate with so many bright minds in writing & film!

In my free time, I love cooking & baking, fashion design, video games, shopping, and just a general quest to make more memorable experiences here in LA.
