Michelle Ann Rio
Managing Director and COO
mitch@dancepinoy.com.ph
An intuitive artist by heart, Michelle has been exposed to the wonders of the arts at a very young age. Most inclined in writing, her creative juices are mostly influenced by classic or witty-modernized theatre plays. Having been trained in acting at ABS-CBN Star Magic workshops at the age of twelve, she pursued her dreams of becoming an actress by enrolling at ABS-CBN Distance Learning Center as Mr. Johnny Manahan’s scholar. Not having the luck to be discovered, Michelle tried to put aside for a while her artistic pursuits and took up Philosophy in the University of Santo Tomas as she was decided then to become a lawyer.
However, her love for the arts just cannot be contained inside her. She continued to write plays and dance during college affairs. Pursuing her passion for writing as a correspondent of the online blog Dancepinoy.com.ph led her into the world of events and talent management. Now a multi-tasker in the field as well as producing award-winning film documentaries under OBRA Inc., Michelle finds contentment in working behind-the-scenes.
