Her rigorous foundation in classical and contemporary performance informs her transformative approach to character and story.
Her seven-year tenure with the acclaimed immersive Off-Broadway production Sleep No More showcased her exceptional commitment to character evolution, physical storytelling, and audience connection.

Alba's one-woman show The Raven, performed at the American Irish Historical Society and selected for the New York Film Festival, fused classical theater with emerging technology through a groundbreaking collaboration with Microsoft. Her live performances have appeared at major cultural institutions and festivals, including the Future of Storytelling Summit, the Tribeca Film Festival, and Lincoln Center's New York Film Festival, receiving widespread acclaim for their innovation and immersive design.
A passionate advocate for diverse narratives and interdisciplinary artistry, Alba has been recognized with numerous honors, including the New York City Artists Corps Grant and the NYFA Artist Grant. Her ability to inhabit complex characters-across theater, film, and television, combined with her bold creative vision, continues to establish her as a dynamic, genre-defying force in contemporary performance.
