Of German, Chilean, Polish and Scottish heritage, Pia Maria Patricia Mechler speaks four languages (German, English, French and Danish) and graduated "Gymnasium" as an honor student while also modeling as a teen. At age 19, she moved to Denmark after applying and being one of the very limited students accepted to attend the European Film College, focusing on performance and writing, but also
Film History and editing intensives. Upon her return to Berlin after graduating, she was approached while literally walking down the
street one day, to read for a highly rated German television series. She was offered and took, the large recurring guest role.
Pia decided to explore her performing nature even further and took up an invitation to join an all male, 5 member band who was gearing up in Portugal and subsequently got signed to Universal Music. The band toured and gained radio and MTV airplay. In 2006, returning to Germany, the ever-more-worldly Pia joined the (Special Coaching) Actor's Studio in Berlin.
In mid 2007, she landed her first English speaking role in a movie for television in London alongside Sean Astin and Jeremy Irons. A mere couple of months later she was then cast in the lead role of the British indie film "Invisible Eyes". Since 2010 she has been living in working in the USA where she also ventured out into writing, producing and directing.
