Faith Aguilar is a Filipina-American artist originally from Tustin, CA, pursuing a BFA in dance at the University of Southern California Glorya Kaufman School of Dance with a minor in occupational science. She began her training at South Coast Performing Arts before attending  Orange County High School of the Arts under the direction of Nicole Berger, where she expanded her studies across concert and commercial dance, improvisation, and composition. While in high school, she also toured nationally as an assistant with Tremaine Dance Conventions.

Faith is represented by Go 2 Talent and has worked with notable choreographers, including Christopher Scott and JA Collective and director Matty Peacock. Her performance and music video credits include Bishop Briggs, Hayden James, and Dominic Fike, alongside modeling and acting experience.

As a choreographer, Aguilar explores cultural resilience and community through a Filipina-American lens. Working across media, including music videos, short films and movement research, she draws on her instinctive musicality, blending hip hop and contemporary. She continues to develop a creative practice grounded in curiosity, connection and leading with the heart. Aguilar’s artistic process is motivated by a deep gratitude she has for the experiences that continue to shape her life. As she further develops this process, she’s committed to embracing growth every step of the way.
