Brenda Wee was born in Chile (South America) in 1975, yes she's vintage!

Brenda went to drama school, and performed as an actor for around 10 years. She was also a teacher of drama at a high school before moving to Perth Australia in 2008 

She became a chef in 2011, and have been working as a chef since then. Brenda is currently the head chef of a very cool cafe called “Source Foods” in the city.  

She may have only started drag two and a half years ago, but first she did some boylesque under the name of Pablo Andres. But Brenda has been taking over her entire life, drag has been a way to reconnect with the stage as an actor.
