Hey there! I am a native Michigander - born and raised in Metro Detroit and based in Farmington Hills.

 

I graduated from Wayne State University with my BFA in Theatre/Acting, but I am so much more than just an actor; I work as a director, vocal director, and have experience with nearly every aspect of technical theatre.

 

I am the founder and owner of Justin Bugeja Studio L.L.C., where I am developing theatrical and vocal pedagogy and support students as an acting and vocal performance educator.

 

In June 2024, I made my Broadway stage debut as a swing in the Caldarona Studios Disney Medley at the New Amsterdam stage during the Arts for Autism Benefit Concert.

As Executive Administrator & Operations Manager for Thistle Rose Academy of Arts, private vocal/acting coach within my own studio, as well as the previous Assistant Director of Theatre at Belleville High School, I have gained experience operating non-profit companies, building intergenerational relationships, and growing as a creative.

 

Besides theatre, I am extremely passionate about helping others and have background in healthcare/nursing (6 years if you can believe it!). I have two orange cats, Oliver and Frankie, who are basically my sons. Outside of my professional ventures, I adore thrifting, taking care of the 70+ plants my roommate and I have, and drinking a good cup of coffee!
