Based in New York City, Eva is a multi-award-winning 15-year-old actress and triple-threat performer with extensive experience in film, television, and theatre. She has undergone consistent, high-level training in acting and the performing arts.
In 2024, she earned her Grade 6 Advanced Acting Certificate from Trinity College London, and in 2025 she returns for her second consecutive year at the prestigious Juilliard Drama Summer Program in New York.
On screen, Eva starred as Penelope in the Go Iguanas movie series on the Premiere App. She is widely recognised for hosting her own two-season TV talk show The BUZZ with Eva on OSN, where she interviewed some of the Middle East’s top filmmakers. Her performance as Lucy in the 2021 short film Where is Lucy? earned her accolades across numerous independent film festivals worldwide. She recently wrapped production on the indie film To God’s Ear in Jamesport, NY.
Eva’s stage credits include Morgan in Knight at the Museum, Logan in The Great Christmas Cookie Bakeoff (KOTA Productions, New York), the title role in Annie the Musical, Fagin in Oliver Twist, and a principal role in Snow White the Musical Panto, performed at Dubai’s renowned Arts for All Theatre. Most recently, she took on the role of Bottom in A Midsummer Night’s Dream.
Eva continues to expand her vocal range as a soprano through advanced vocal training, hones her screen performance skills with renowned acting coaches, and polishes her tap and hip-hop technique at Steps on Broadway. Off-stage, she is a passionate advocate for compassion and inclusion.
