actor, writer, director, producer
hi, I’m rachel cairns
Welcome! Thanks for being curious about me and what I’m up to.
This is where I share info about my projects, insights into my creation process, and practical tips I’ve learned about navigating a multi-disciplined artistic career.

about me
about me
Yes. I’m one of those multi-hyphenate people who can’t decide what I love the most, although my first love was acting. It’s something I’ve done on stage and screen since I was a teenager and informs how I write and direct.
As an artist, I believe in staying curious and following your bliss. My favourite stories are the kind that encompass the duality of life and remind us of a universal spirit that connects us all.
My most recent crush is podcasting. Season One of Aborsh won a Planned Parenthood Choice Award for excellence in sexual and reproductive health and rights advocacy, and the second season is currently in the works.
Join my newsletter if you’d like to keep in touch. I write about my work, and share occasional boosts of inspiration and musings on personal finance (my unprofessional passion).
