Biography

Stavellie-Ellmerelia Nadine Salomon, a multi-ethnic American polyglot singer, actress, artist, entrepreneur, and author, is best known for her roles in Chepachet (2007–) as one of Mrs. Wares' girls. This indie film, made for less than 10K, won two international film festival awards for Best Drama and Best Actress with no connections or nepotism. Based on a play, the film is a bit "talkie" but takes the viewer on a deep emotional journey.

Known by her initials, SENS, Stavellie loves traveling and immersing herself in different cultures. She has been writing on various subjects for many years and holds a real estate license and a Chinese language diploma. Fluent in French, English, Creole, and Mandarin, she is constantly expanding her linguistic abilities by studying Spanish, Hebrew, Russian, and Italian. A global citizen, she lovingly cares for her dog, Lassie, as if she were royalty and never passes up the chance to browse thrift stores while sipping tea, especially on cold autumn days.

Her love for romance novels began at age twelve when she read her first book in French—its title now lost to time. Captivated, she read it repeatedly for a month, igniting a lifelong passion for literature. By sixteen, she had devoured countless historical epics featuring domineering alpha males and the strong women who tamed them.

Her creative journey started at eight, with early writings featuring female characters inspired by her life, though partially fictional. A freelance writer and published poet, her first poem, De Pina, depicted her as a romantic figure who recognized that the fires of love need never be extinguished. This set the tone for her writing, which often weaves themes of romance, drama, and humor. Her first mini novel, Dear Ma Dear Diary: Les Lettres de Coco, languished on her hard drive until a serene period allowed her to bring it to life. With encouragement from a supportive friend and patron of the arts, she published the book four months later, paving the way for future projects.

Stavellie's inspiration comes from many sources, including the familiar chords of a favorite concerto, the dappled sunlight of a twilight forest, and the wisdom of actor Harvey Keitel, who once said, "Everyone wants to learn something; maybe not everyone makes the effort because they get discouraged. But you have to find the strength to acknowledge that ignorance within yourself, otherwise you are going to remain stagnant." Despite discouragement and struggles with self-doubt, Stavellie has pursued her passion for art with determination.

Reflecting on her journey, she finds resonance in Rabindranath Tagore's words: "I leave no trace of wings in the air, but I am glad I have had my flight." Dedicated to mastering various art forms, Stavellie seeks excellence in all her endeavors.

Raised in Connecticut, Stavellie's formal education was international in scope, fitting her multiethnic background of African, East European, Italian, and Inuit descent. She attended private schools, public high school, and later studied Health Management at NYU and Chinese Business at Beijing Language and Culture University, where she earned a diploma in Chinese Language. She also holds a real estate license and a mental health diploma.

A perpetual student, Stavellie engages in horse riding, camping, writing, and furthering her linguistic skills. She travels whenever possible but can also be found working for her educational company, skincare company, or making handmade organic soaps. She writes, composes poems and songs, and enjoys both fiction and non-fiction. Inspired by Einstein's view of the universe as "finite but unbounded," Stavellie continues to pursue her dreams with lofty ambition, living a private, family-centered life across the globe.
