Ellexis Wejr

Growing up with your best friend can be such a powerful experience. Ellexis Wejr (she/her) lives this every day as she goes to school, dances, sings, and hangs out with her twin sister, Ella.

Ellexis entered the world of TV and film with a principal role on The Twilight Zone and then continued with an exciting recurring guest star role on Supergirl and a supporting lead role on Operation Bring Back Christmas. She has continued to expand her skillset behind the camera with acting, singing, and dancing roles on shows like Zoey’s Extraordinary Christmas and Schmigadoon.

Being the daughter of a dance studio owner has led Ellexis to feel the rhythm since before she could walk and has given her the opportunity to dance and sing since the age of 3. These years of experience has led her to find her passion for performing on stage and behind the camera. She currently dances competitively at Kick It Up A Notch Academy of Dance. There, she studies ballet, jazz, lyrical, tap, hip hop, musical theatre and acro. She has won numerous high-level awards both in her groups and as a duet with her sister and has represented the dance studio in talent competitions, parades and festivals.

Self-taught on the guitar and ukulele, when she is not at dance or in acting classes and coaching sessions, she enjoys quiet spaces to tap into her creative side and develop her skills as a talented singer-songwriter. She has sung as a soloist in front of full audiences at schools, theatres and behind the camera on film sets.

She also cherishes her time on outings with her family and being a big sister to her little brother. Her fondest memories include camping and swimming with her family, cruising on her vintage bike with her sister, playing soccer and basketball with her friends, and snuggling with her 110lb Bullmastiff, Aurora. As a leader in her school, she strives to create equitable opportunities for students and families and advocates for social justice initiatives within and beyond the classroom.
