About Nina...

Hi, I'm Nina! I'm a passionate actor, dancer, and improvisor in the Los Angeles area. With humble beginnings playing Charlie Brown in my yearly homeschool community theater production, since childhood I've had a singular calling.  My passion for acting grew as I competed in the national competitive speech circuit, and spent summers training at Chicago's Second City Boot Camp, Interlochen Center for the Arts, and the Northwestern University Theater Cherubs. 

My love of performance included years as a dedicated student of dance, training at The Center for Modern Dance Education (cmde),  Paul Taylor American Modern Dance, Man in Motion NYC, and the Broadway Dance Center. In 2019, I moved to downtown Chicago, where I continued to study improvisation and sketch at The Second City and The IO Theater. In fall of that year, I was cast in my first professional long -form improv ensemble: Improvised Jane Austen. Performing weekly at both the IO Theater and the Annoyance Theater

 After two years as an improvisor, I discovered a deeper passion for acting on the stage and screen after a year of study at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London, as well as spending the last six months as a student of the Strasburg Method with my acting teacher, Tony Greco. This rigorous training, in addition to finding new representation, motivated my recent move to Los Angeles where I am continuing my journey as a performer. I am spending my time enjoying the southern California sun, auditioning, studying The Method, and continuing my improvisational training at the Groundlings. My deep desire to create and inhabit characters on stage and screen informs every step of my life, and I can't wait for what's next!
