Age: “I play between 25 and 35″

Miranda Shade is originally from Athens, GA but she has lived in LA for 6 years. She has worked as a speech language pathologist for 7 years.

WORST MOMENT IN LA: “I went to sleep owning a brand new Jeep Grand Cherokee. When I got up the next morning the Jeep was gone. I kept thinking maybe I parked it someplace else and kept wandering around looking for it. When I got back to my house, I noticed someone had carved ‘I’ll be back’ on my door. I called the police and the officer said ‘We’re gonna write up a report and send it to you. In the report it’s going to say we came out to you. But we’re not coming out.’ My car was never found.”

BEST AUDITION STORY: “I don’t know that I’ve had a good audition, I’ve had luck. Maybe it was the eHarmony commercial. They just said ‘be a bad date.’ I guess I’m a very convincing bad date.”

YOU MAY HAVE SEEN HER IN: eHarmony commercial, Mercedes-Benz commercial, Motel 6 commercial, and a Gap commercial

DREAM ROLE: “Anything with Ricky Gervais”

ADVICE FOR ANYONE MOVING TO LA TO BE AN ACTOR: “Always have a roll of quarters. Always look at parking signs. Always have extra clothes in your trunk. You’re gonna be dressed like a nun and they are gonna call you in for a hooker with a heart of gold.”
