- Born in Fort Worth, TX, Waverly was named after the chess-playing prodigy Waverly Jong in Amy Tan's "Joy Luck Club". Like her namesake, Waverly's "invisible strength" and desire to dive headfirst into life's experiences has afforded her many exciting opportunities in a life-long adventure that is just beginning.
As an accomplished athlete, Waverly has played club-level soccer, won two national competitive cheer titles, and trained in figure skating with British pairs champion Erika Shorr (Taylforth). Her current athletic passion is in English Hunter/Equitation riding, where she has already won numerous awards and accolades across Southern California with her Hungarian Sporthorse equine partner, Wonder Boy.
As an artist, Waverly enjoys creating music, designing characters, and is in the process of honing two scripts she hopes to one day bring to production. One is a fantasy adventure episodic and the other is a tween/YA series loosely based on the lessons and adventures she has personally experienced as an equestrian. When she's not being a full-time kid, Waverly loves bringing her diverse experiences and interests to the characters she brings to life on screen. Waverly hopes that her visibility in mainstream media will encourage and positively impact other underrepresented POC to break stereotypes and pursue their dreams on their own terms.
