Biography

Osmanski's life journey began with a remarkable act of kindness as a baby, when she was flown halfway around the world to meet her adoptive parents. Growing up in Olympia, Washington, she developed a passion for writing plays, although she never considered herself an actor.

After completing her undergraduate degree in Creative Writing and Studio Art at Principia College in just three years, Osmanski embarked on a career as a graphic designer in Boston. Her time in the city was marked by a romantic union with her college sweetheart, and the couple eventually relocated to San Francisco.

In a surprising turn of events, Osmanski stumbled upon an audition notice for a local production of "Our Town" and decided to take a chance. Her performance earned her the lead role, and she was bitten by the acting bug. This experience led her to pursue a Master of Fine Arts degree from the University of California, San Diego, which is renowned for being one of the top three professional actor training programs in the country.

Throughout her career, Osmanski has had the privilege of working with esteemed organizations, including the San Jose Repertory Theatre, where she appeared in productions of "The Matchmaker," "Major Barbara," and "Red Ladder." Her credits also include "Be Aggressive" at the San Jose Repertory Theatre, "Lily Plants a Garden" and "The Unbearable Truth" at the Mark Taper Forum, and "Romeo and Juliet" at A Noise Within.

After relocating to Los Angeles, Osmanski has continued to work steadily in the entertainment industry, booking commercials and landing lead roles in small, independent films. In addition to her acting pursuits, she also utilizes her English degree by tutoring students for the ISEE and SAT.
