Fabulously talented Aleesha’s career in music and acting started with vocal lessons at age six. She quickly was cast as Molly in "Annie" at Moonlight Amphitheater, a dancer in the California Ballet's "Nutcracker,"
and Gretel in "The Sound of Music" where she performed on the famous stages of Pasadena Civic Auditorium and Phoenix Symphony Hall. Her voice was also featured on Joan Chen's film and soundtrack, Xiu Xiu: The Sent Down Girl, Mattel's "Princess Tenko", and Mattel's "Totally Talkin C.D. Case".
At age 13, Aleesha transitioned from musical theater training to classical training where she learned arias and challenged her vocal range. Aleesha sang in her high school choir for a year where they sang the national anthem at Qualcomm stadium for the San Diego Padres. Aleesha continued to train vocally and received a vocal scholarship at Chapman University from choral director Dr. William Hall. She was a part of Howard Shore's premiere at the Hollywood Bowl, where her choir sang the score of "The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring."
Aleesha also went into acting where she was cast in small parts on "Dave's World" on CBS, Sci-Fi channel's "Invisible Man," Universal's "Bring it On," and Nickelodeon's "The Amanda Show." Aleesha appeared in numerous commercials such as Sea World, Sharp Hospital, and Paramount Parks. She also played Penny in "Hairspray" as well as a singer in a 50's medley for Chapman's American Celebration with guest celebrities including Debbie Reynolds and Jane Seymour.
In high school, she took time off from her entertainment lifestyle where she became tri-sport varsity athlete in soccer, cross country, and track and field where she competed in both California Interscholastic Federation and State competitions.
Aleesha is currently working with producer/ songwriter Peter Roberts (writer of the hit single, "Fearless," from The Bratz soundtrack) on new material for her upcoming debut album.
