Maddie Phillips is a Canadian actress, who gained popularity with the role of Randeen in the TV series “Ghost Wars” (2017-2018), and most recently as Sterling Welsey in the teen comedy-drama series “Teenage Bounty Hunters” (2020), among numerous other appearances.
Age, Early Life, Parents, and Education
Maddie Phillips was born on 6 September 1994 under the Virgo zodiac sign, in Vancouver, British Columbia Canada, which makes her 27 years old as of 2021. She hasn’t talked about her parents and whether she has any siblings or not, but for the first ten years of her life, Maddie lived in Vancouver, then moved to the other side of the world, Perth, Western Australia where her maternal grandparents lived, and the rest of the family from her mother’s side.
Maddie enrolled at Penrhos College, which is an independent Uniting Church single-sex primary and secondary day and boarding school for girls. She has been interested in performance arts from an early age including singing, photography, and creative writing, but her love of acting and theater has been abnormally strong, so after high school, she entered the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts from which she earned a High Distinction. She then moved back to Vancouver where she auditioned for the ASAS program at Capilano University. Although she was accepted into the university’s program, Maddie decided to opt-out of formal education and enter the world of show business.
She trained with several acting coaches, including Ingrid Torrance and Arron Craven at “Studio On the Drive”, then at Railtown Studios under John Cassini. Also, she was a part of the Actors Foundry, where she studied acting with teacher Matthew Harrison, while her long-lasting professional relationship with Deb Podowski lasts until the present day.

In 2017 she featured in the TV sci-fi action series “Legion”, and also made an appearance in the award-winning drama film “Story of a Girl”, which starred Ryann Shane, Kevin Bacon, and Jon Tenney, directed by Kyra Sedgwick.

The role of Devon propelled her further into show business, and earned her the role of Violet in the television movie “Woman of the House”, starring Kirsten Zien, Charlie Carrick, and Larissa Dias. She continued quite successfully during the same year, selected for the role of Randeen in the TV series “Ghost Wars” (2017-2018), and then guest-starring in several popular TV series including “The Crossing” (2018), “Loudermilk” (2018), “Van Helsing” (2018), and others.
She appeared in the television movie “A Feeling of Home” in 2019, portraying Janet, and was then Katie in the television movie “Made for You, with Love” (2019).
