Don’t feel bad if the name Maia Mitchell doesn’t ring a bell. The young actress is primarily known for her work on Australian TV (Mortified, Trapped). But that could change soon, as 19-year-old Mitchell seems primed for a breakout year in the U.S. Tonight she’ll guest star on Jessie, later this year she’ll star in the Disney Channel Original Movie Teen Beach Movie, and it was just announced that her show The Fosters, executive produced by Jennifer Lopez, has been picked up by ABC Family.
Take a look at this video as Mitchell introduces us to her family back home in Australia in this Disney ‘This is Who I Am’ clip.
