Ashavari (she/her) is proudly from the great state of New Jersey. Her passion for theater came early in her life when she first performed with the South Asian Theater Festival. Since then she has followed her passion for exercising empathy with art. Finally, Ashavari found her way to Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University, studying Meisner and having great opportunities like studying at the Shakespeare Globe in London. Some of her notable credits at Rutgers University include Dancing at Lughnasa directed by William Carden and Orlando directed by Chika Ike.
Ashavari also has had the privilege to study with the British American Drama Academy in their Midsummer at Oxford program. While living her best life in the UK, she was able to learn and expand her work and perform in Richard II directed by Geraldine Alexander. Ashavari is thrilled to be following her inspirations and adding new perspectives to the industry.
