Her Hollywood-confirmed playing age is 27–35, and she is known for portraying strong, layered women with quiet intensity and emotional depth.

Shanna’s career spans 30+ commercial campaigns and over 20 independent films, with credits that include Evil Deeds (Amazon Prime), Snowy Night (Dark Night Films), and Tin Roof (currently on the festival circuit).

Whether playing a mobster’s girlfriend, a nurse under pressure, or a pioneer woman fighting to survive, Shanna brings grounded presence, subtle power, and clear emotional objectives to each role. She specializes in characters shaped by high stakes and internal strength—often carrying pain without ever falling apart.

When she's not on set, Shanna stays performance-ready through BodyCombat and strength training, and is always ready to travel for roles across the South Central and Southeast markets.
