Having been trained in the studio in jazz, ballet, tap, and modern during her school-age years, modeling became her new form of dance in the midst of college, where she dabbled in it for the sense of possibilities it provided to a gal who never liked the idea of “growing up.” There’s adventure in the land of the lens where one can go from mermaid to madman in a click, and Ludella is always looking for that next great adventure with passion pumping through her veins and a bit of mischief in her gaze. Because of her training in dance, she brings a unique grace and expressiveness into her performances in modeling and burlesque.

Ludella began her burlesque career in Maine in June of 2009 by performing in Atomic Trash’s bi-monthly show at Geno’s, where she performed regularly until her move to Boston in 2011. It was her entrance into performance dance as an adult. Since her move to Boston, Ludella has made regular appearances performing with Vice Versatile’s “Personae” at Jacques Cabaret and with Wasabassco Burlesque in New York City. She has headlined many burlesque and fetish events including Dallas Fetish Ball, The Lone Star 13 in San Antonio, Fort Worth Stomp in Fort Worth, Texas, Circo Phantasmagoria in San Antonio, Texas, the Official Fetish Con Ball in Tampa, Florida, the Sinical Ball in Houston, Texas, and the Floating Fetish Ball in Boston. She has performed in Boston’s burlesque ballet spectacular The Slutcracker for three seasons.

Graduating magna cum laude from college in May 2010 with a degree in Classical Humanities and Creative Writing, Ludella’s only real goal in life has been making a career in the realm of artistic expression which she has been successfully achieving since April 2011.

Though modeling and burlesque are Ludella’s main careers, she is an actress as well. She acts most often for fetish production companies, including Damsels in Distress Visual Productions where she has been working since 2008, but occasionally dabbles in television and film. In 2012 she worked alongside John Barrowman, William Sadler, and Edoardo Ballerini as the burlesque dancer “Ada” in the ABC Studios television movie “Gilded Lilys," and she played supporting actress “Anette” in Ama Lea’s giallo short film currently in post production to release this year, as well as the character “Bambi” in television series Boston Massacre.
