ABOUT ME

I am a writer, actor, model (https://vimeo.com/70559114), and filmmaker (https://vimeo.com/sanserif). I got accepted for a scholarship to attend class at UCB so I was able to study Improv in NY for a bit which was cool. I recently have been accepted to study at The Roundhouse and am finishing up my spoken word and performance training now.

I wrote as a music journalist for Pancakesandwhiskey.com and Pretextsocialclub.com. I have directed a short film on homelessness in Dale City Virginia and the trailer can be found at https://vimeo.com/119594198 ( more unedited footage on tentcitydocumentary.tumblr.com)

I also write some personal blogs where you can learn more about me on poetryforthemute.blogspot.com, melodiesforthedeaf.blogspot.com,

I also have some music poetry I have been experimenting with on Soundcloud, https://soundcloud.com/marissa-sanzsarif-sonrisa/netizen.

I also published a book, which is on Amazon, titled Poetry for the Mute.

Anything else just ask.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I got accepted to do an internship in London and I have always wanted to live in London so I am applying for a visa and I would like to learn about London the real way and be introduced to interesting artists I could work with.
