Embedded Files
I was born and raised in Thessaloniki, Greece, and my professional journey began in the performing arts.
I graduated in 2017 from the Performing Arts Department of IIEK DELTA, specializing in Music & Singing. My relationship with music started earlier, in 2015, with the release of my first EP as part of the band Kappa Effect, performing and writing lyrics under the name Amersa. That period marked the beginning of my live performances — a practice that has remained an essential part of my artistic identity ever since.
From Performance to Education
From Performance to Education
In 2017, my work expanded into theatre and education. I completed my internship at the National Theatre of Northern Greece, while simultaneously creating my own classes in theatrical play and vocal training, and forming a theatre group. During the same period, I starred in the musical “One Step at a Time” by Maria Stefanou and co-wrote the official song of Thessaloniki Pride, titled “Definition of Love” in collaboration with Andreas Markatis.
In 2019, I became co-creator and performer in the musical “The Paper World,” while also releasing three original singles — Tears of Shame, Dreams και SACRIFICE — written and performed by me.
Voice, Acting & Creative Output
Voice, Acting & Creative Output
To date, I have written and performed lyrics and melodies for more than 200 original songs published across online music platforms. I have composed music for theatre performances and films, taught in schools, conservatories, and online environments, and remained actively involved in acting.
Alongside performance, I expanded into voice work, recording voice overs for audiobooks, cartoons, trailers, and digital media — deepening my understanding of voice as a tool for communication, presence, and leadership.
In 2020, I released the single “Contest,” produced by Ilias Kozas of Koza Mostra. That same year, I began formal studies in Acting for Theatre and Cinema at IEK Thermi, further strengthening my technical and narrative skills.
Leadership, Media & International Work
Leadership, Media & International Work
From 2021 to 2023, I worked as Project Manager and radio producer at Shook Radio 104.4 in Thessaloniki, gaining hands-on experience in media production, team coordination, and content strategy. During this period, I was also selected among the top 25 candidates representing Greece for Eurovision 2022.
Between late 2022 and 2023, my career expanded into cinema through collaborations with Film Forge and NU Boyana Film Studios. I worked on American and European productions as an actress, trainee assistant director, and screen footage coordinator, experiencing large-scale production environments and international collaboration firsthand.
From Creativity to Structure
From Creativity to Structure
Across music, theatre, voice, film, and underwater performance, one pattern became clear: creativity flourishes when supported by structure, education, and responsibility.
This realization led me to entrepreneurship and education. Today, I design and lead structured educational ecosystems, immersive experiences, and leadership pathways through projects such as Thessa Mermaid Academy and the ANASA Mermaid Experience, while working as a speaker, coach, and mentor.

My work now lives at the intersection of creativity, education, and leadership.
I continue to build, teach, collaborate, and speak internationally — always with the intention of transforming artistic potential into sustainable, empowering experiences.
If my journey and work resonate with you, I welcome collaboration, conversation, and shared vision.
