Hey there, I'm Charlotte Xia, but you can call me Ziwei. I've had the privilege of living a life steeped in art, thanks to my incredible parents—a Chinese Traditional Singer and an artist and businessman. My journey has taken me from the bustling streets of Beijing to the heart of Hollywood.

Embracing Diversity

Growing up in such a creative environment, I couldn't help but develop a deep love for the arts. This diverse upbringing has shaped me into an actress, model, singer, artist, designer, and painter. It's also fostered my deep appreciation for culture and creativity.

A Journey Across Oceans

In 2010, I embarked on a new adventure, moving to California. My studies at the Academy of Art University in Motion Picture and Television laid the foundation for my career. Music and art have always been my anchors, and so I furthered my skills at Santa Monica College, exploring instruments, dance, and design. The Musicians Institute in Hollywood fine-tuned my vocal abilities, while Barbizon School of Hollywood refined my acting and modeling skills.

Hollywood Dreams & Success

Stepping into Hollywood wasn't as smooth as I'd imagined. The '2016 Hollywood Showcase' marked my breakthrough, but not without its share of auditions and challenges. From "I Love You, America" to portraying a Naval Officer in "Top Gun: Maverick," every step has been a testament to my determination.

A Formidable Woman: Lending a Hand

Being a single mom is one of the most rewarding roles I've ever taken on. My son, a budding baby actor, fills my heart with pride. Beyond my professional pursuits, I'm deeply involved in my community, offering support to fellow moms, small businesses, and children. It's a privilege to make a difference every day.

Building Communities, Together

I believe in the power of unity. Meeting and collaborating with like-minded individuals is where true change begins. My mission is to uplift small businesses, offer support to mothers and children, and leave a positive mark on the world.

A Woman of Many Talents

In addition to my artistic pursuits, I'm also an avid golfer, finding solace and challenge on the green. I've explored various sports including martial arts, karate, hiking, mountain climbing, and bowling. As for languages, I'm fluent in Chinese and Mandarin, and I enjoy embracing different dialects like British and Chinese.

A Taste for Adventure and Learning

I'm a curious soul, always seeking new experiences. Whether it's honing my skills in the kitchen as a chef, sharing a laugh as a comedian, or finding peace through massage, I'm constantly exploring the world around me.

Savoring the Flavors of Mexico

I'm a true foodie, celebrating the rich tapestry of global cuisines. But there's something about Mexican cuisine that truly captures my heart. Partnering with Latino Meat Market & Grill, an award-winning establishment, is a dream come true.

R52: A Community of Difference-Makers

I'm thrilled to be part of the R52 Community. Together, we'll make a difference, promoting local businesses, and contributing to the growth and prosperity of our community.
