I am also a life-long Star Trek fan; Gene Roddenberry's vision of humanity's ability to rise above the conflicts that plague us and become an altruistic society with goals of seeking out new life, new civilizations, and going where no one has gone before are a beautiful dream that I still carry hope for achieving. In film and entertainment, we can achieve that. Creating movies and TV shows builds towards that vision through authenticity within that given circumstance, fostering that hope that humanity will evolve to the greatness that Gene Roddenberry, and subsequently I, see in us. Throughout my life, I have been drawn to male-dominated
industries: construction management, engineering, real estate development and investing, surgery, and entertainment. As an actress, my goal is to use my platform to depict strong women thriving in difficult male-dominated roles, overcoming societal expectations and not live for approval of others but rather acceptance and love of ourselves. More specifically, in the immediate future, I want to thrust my Borg Queen Supremacy short into the market as a pitch to play the Borg Queen on Star Trek Picard. She has always been depicted as evil, but my short explores the universe from hers and the Borg's perspective rather than Starfleet's My writing and producing career emerged from my acting career. When I continued to be type-cast as the "stripper" and "blonde bimbo", I decided that I had to create the ideal roles to fit my niche rather than wait for an audition to stick and be handed a role by someone else. Of course, Star Trek was what I truly wanted, so I built the bridge of the TOS Enterprise in my garage and created my own web series. It ultimately grabbed the attention of William Shatner and I landed an interview on the series in his LA Studio. I then decided to make a feature film, and of course was told I could not get funding with no experience. So I donated my eggs and financed it myself, Robert Rodriguez style. Ultimately, I wrote, directed, produced, financed, composed, and starred in the film. I would love to build a career where I make my full time living acting, writing, and producing TV and film. Together, we create magic. Art...the final frontier...these are the voyages of Vienna Hayden
