About Agnes . . .
Agnes Olech was born on September 11, 1984, in Bielsko Biala, Poland.  The aspiring actress relocated with her family to the United States in April of 1994.  Settling down in Northern California, it was her parents’ goal to show their children that anything was possible. The second of four kids, Agnes always stood out as being the performer of the bunch. "I used to perform to Tina Turner songs in my parents living room. I loved the laughter it brought to my family. To this day, everytime I hear a Tina Turner song I smile."  Inspired by movies such as "The Never Ending Story", Agnes knew from an early age that there was something quite magical about transforming yourself into a "character" and being able to experience a whole new world that was far from reality. "There is no better feeling than to get lost in your own body and become another soul, even if only for a few seconds."
 

Watching herown parents’ hard work and determination bloom into success, it is no wonder that this vivacious girl packed up all of her belongings at the age of 18 and headed to Tinseltown in pursuit of her dream. Fearless would be an understatement when describing her will to succeed.  This bi-lingual beauty has a wide range of talent, and considered a perfectionist when it comes to her craft. "One of my favorite memories was working with Danny Trejo in "Living the Dream".  I played his girlfriend in the film and I remember I was so nervous.  It was my first time working with such a star and I was anxious to meet him because all I knew of him was his work and he always played a major badass.  When we met he completely took me under his wing.  During our first scene I completely forgot my lines and thank god the director called cut because of lighting issues.  Danny at that point whispered my first few lines to me and told me I was great.  He could have been obvious about it, but with that little gesture he won my trust completely and from that moment on the rest of the shoot was a breeze.  I felt like no matter what, he would be there to catch me if I fell.  I hope one day I can do the same for another actor."

Certainly no stranger to hard work, Agnes also draws inspiration from actors such as Jim Carrey and Michelle Pfeiffer, whose diligent work ethic and bold acting style have created lasting memories to Agnes. "I love to make people feel, which is one of the reasons that I am drawn to performing. If even one person walks away with the tiniest bit of connection, then it is all worth it."

Agnes works hard, but she also plays hard too.  Balancing out her hectic Hollywood life, one of Agnes’s favorite ways to spend her days is with her three dogs.  Agnes is a true animal lover; during her childhood it was not uncommon for her to “surprise” her parents by bringing home a stray dog or cat that was in need of a good home.  This practice has followed her into adulthood; each of her beloved dogs has been rescued from inhuman conditions.  “My goal is to one day have my own ranch where I can start my own animal rescue center and rehabilitate animals.  I love ‘em all – dogs, cats, birds, turtles, whatever!  Animals are amazing creatures that give so much love and only require our love in return to be happy – our society could really learn from them.”  Another important part of Agnes life is spending time outdoors.  Whether it's long hikes in the Hollywood Hills, camping with her family in Northern California, or taking her dogs on a relaxing walk through her LA neighborhood, Agnes makes it a point to enjoy the natural outdoors as much as possible.  This adventure seeker lives every day to its fullest, following her mantra that “imagination is more important than knowledge.”  It’s no doubt that we’ll see Agnes Olech capturing our hearts and minds on the silver screen one day.
