Bridgette Bassa will never shy away from petting a dog, would rather sweat than shiver and has a knack for accidental comedy.

She has been storytelling since grandma encouraged her to audition for the third grade school play. As a multi-year recipient of the John Goodman scholarship, Bridgette continued to stay encouraged while attending college in St Louis.

After being inspired by one of David Mamet’s books, she packed her things and was blessed to spend a decade in Los Angeles garnering an education on sets alongside big fish like Michael Madsen and John Schneider. She is grateful to have a national commercial in her cap and is most proud of her recent work stage-side as well as in many a VO booth.
