Welcome to my official website! I'm Kris McQuaid, a creative spirit born and raised in Dallas, Texas. My journey into the world of performance began when I started singing opera professionally at the age of 10. Since then, my passion for the craft of performing has only grown.
​
At 18, I followed my dreams to New York City, where I attended The American Musical and Dramatic Academy. From there, I continued to pursue my education, earning a BFA in theatrical performance from the University of Texas in Arlington.
I've had the opportunity to work and perform all across the US, and I've recently found my calling in film and television. In fact, I'm currently busy producing my own projects, diving headfirst into the world of content creation.
I consider myself a jack of all creative trades, refusing to let anything hold me back. While my heart may belong to the hustle and bustle of New York City, I'll always have a special place in my heart for my Texas roots.
​
These days, I call Phoenix, AZ home, where I live with my husband. I am represented by the Leighton Agency in Phoenix,
Arizona and I'm represented in Los Angeles by my wonderful manager, Cinda Snow of Snow Entertainment, and with MPM MODELS and TALENT. When I'm not gracing the stage or the big screen, you'll likely find me hard at work behind the scenes, bringing new projects to life.
