My name is Tabitha Bastien and I’m a film and television actress based in Seattle, WA.  I have had the pleasure of appearing in a wide range of independent films and web series, including lead roles in the feature films “The Anatomy of Monsters” and “The Anniversary” and have recurring roles in “Epytombs” and the award-winning series “STILL.”  I am originally from the Pacific Northwest and started performing at a young age, with lead roles in community theater productions and spent several years fronting the band Crush Uncrush.  Outside of the entertainment world, I am a proud vegan, animal rights activist, horror movie fan and lover of David Lynch films.
