Hello!
From the vibrant streets of Brooklyn to the sacred quiet of a therapist’s office, and from the life-or-death urgency of ICU wards to the illuminating spotlight of the stage, my journey has been anything but ordinary. I am Natalie Amey, a mosaic of professions, passions, and experiences, each chapter of my life contributing to the complexity of who I am today.
As a child, the stage called to me, offering a place where I could channel my energy and unique style into unforgettable performances. While my acting career as a proud member of SAG-AFTRA allowed me to give voice to the unspoken and shed light on the shadows of society, life guided me through roles that grounded my creativity in the profound realities of human struggle and resilience. My work as a family therapist and ICU nurse taught me about the depths of human suffering and the heights of the indomitable spirit, showing me that empathy and action are two sides of the same coin.
Despite the diversity of my experiences, one constant has been my belief in the power of art to illuminate, challenge, and heal. My acting career has been about more than just storytelling—it's been about bridging worlds, opening hearts, and empowering others through the stories we tell. This passion for narrative is what led me to explore creative expression as a powerful tool for healing and self-discovery.

At the core of my myriad roles is a creative soul, yearning to connect, inspire, and empower, particularly survivors navigating the turbulences I once faced.
