LOS ANGELES—Alyssa Shy loves visiting Europe but she admits there’s something about the natural beauty of Hawaii that keeps her always wanting to go back. “I’ve been to Maui, Oahu, and Kauai, but Maui is definitely my favorite,” Alyssa says. “It’s a little bit ‘different’ in terms of a career but they love me for me and do not judge,” Alyssa says. Adaptable, resilient and ever curious, Alyssa says she’s never been afraid to step outside her comfort zone—and taking that leap always leads somewhere positive. In this exclusive interview for the August issue of CAMStar, Alyssa also discusses Legos, her go-to games on Switch 2, romantic comedies and building connections, plus much more.
