kelly_leon_guerrero_actressABOUT KELLY LEON GUERRERO:

Kelly Leon Guerrero is an Actress, Philanthropist and Burn Survivor.
In 2012, 13% of Kelly’s body was burned in a fire.  During the year long recovery process, she questioned the meaning of her existence.  It wasn’t selfies or “likes” on a picture…it was love and freedom.  She realized that humanity is a team and we have a responsibility to help those who are weakest among us.  We also have a responsibility to ourselves–to follow the secret dreams in our hearts and to fight everyday to be as weird as we want to be.  She reminds herself often: “”I can do whatever the f*ck I want because I know what it feels like to be burned alive.”

She started out writing album and concert reviews in college, her first interview being Paul Barker of Ministry. She then got a job as a production assistant for Fuse’s popular metal show, Uranium, where she filmed an interview with Dio. She recently starred in and directed a Kickstarter-funded comedy TV pilot, Queen Gorya, where she plays a popular horror hostess being stalked by a Crowley influenced cult of fanboys.
