Paris Berelc

Paris Berelc was born in Milwaukee, WI. Berelc always knew she wanted to be a performer. She began dancing at the age of 4, and also spent the majority of her formative years as an accomplished gymnast. At the age of 9, however, Berelc's life and career took a different turn when she was approached by a scout for the Ford Modeling Agency in Chicago. Intrigued by her look, the agency signed Berelc and before long she was appearing in nationwide ad campaigns for department stores like Kohl's and K-Mart. With her modeling career on the upswing, in 2010 Berelc decided to follow her true passion of becoming a professional actress. She started taking classes at the Acting Studio in Chicago and after two years of intensive work, felt confident enough in her craft to take a stab at Hollywood. She and her family arrived in sunny Los Angeles in 2013 and almost immediately Berelc began landing roles. She quickly landed her first major TV role on the Disney XD series "Mighty Med" (Disney XD, 2013-15), and followed that up with a part in the TV movie "Invisible Sister" (2015). The following year, in 2016, Berelc joined the cast of two shows, Disney XD's "Lab Rats: Elite Force" (2016) and the web series "Welcome to Howler" (HellaTV.com, 2016), thus further establishing her as a talented young actress on the rise. Then in 2018 Berelc had a breakout year. In addition to nabbing a part in the drama film "#Squadgoals" (2018), she also joined the cast of the Netflix comedy series "Alexa & Katie" (2018-20). Berelc co-starred as Alexa Mendoza in the series, which premiered on the streaming service in late March of 2018.
