Beyond film and television, Bethany’s stage presence earned her a 2020 Jessie Award nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in the play Disgraced by Ayad Akhtar.

Originally from Burnaby, BC, Bethany was raised on a 100-acre farm in the Okanagan, where she spent her early years milking cows, collecting eggs, riding horses, and churning butter. She moved to Vancouver at 17 to play collegiate soccer in the NAIA for Simon Fraser University but returned to the arts after a foot injury ended her athletic career. Bethany’s journey from the classical stage to the screen has made her a multi-talented force in the industry, and she is poised for even greater accomplishments ahead
