She got her film and TV start on her first series regular role on Nickelodeon's musical comedy series, "Make It Pop", starring an all asian female cast (the first of its kind) which consisted of 42 episodes.

Louriza also has experience working with casting as a reader/assistant since 2018. Having watched and assisted with hundreds of auditions involving casting, directors, executive producers and networks.   

As a coach and instructor, she hosts a necessary modern perspective and space. Louriza understands the process of breaking down barriers in the film industry through what the actor has control of. Having lived experience and belief in the power of using an individual’s unique voice, body and mind they are given in order to create an equally unique offer to humbly and fearlessly serve the story, she creates a homeroom where the practice isn’t “getting it right” but rather “getting it you”.



Testimonials

The Essential Studio class with Louriza taught me to fall in love with the process. I had so many “a-ha” moments in her class - she showed me how to focus on the “what” and not the “how” and why the gift of time is the greatest gift we can give ourselves as actors. Louriza keeps it real, she is incredibly encouraging and I am so thankful for the standard she set for our class! I can’t wait to train with her again soon.

Louriza encouraged me to look beyond the lines on a page, and immerse myself in the story being told. She welcomed questions after class, and her feedback was always genuine and constructive. She truly cares for her students and goes out of her way to provide guidance. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I’m looking forward to training with her again in the future!
