Nakia Secrest

Nakia Secrest is known for Scandal, Modern Family, Rizzoli and Isles, Weeds, CSI NY, Seven Rounds, and Radio Silence.

I am an actress-writer with over 20 years of professional experience in TV, Film and Theater. I have been coaching actors for almost ten years and the wheels are in motion to start teaching by the end of the year. I believe as an actor you never stop training or being open to other perspectives. Working with different readers is not only essential because of busy schedules, but an amazing way to see things differently, tell the story in an interesting way and opportunity for continued learning.

Radio Silence, a short film that I wrote and starred in, has received six nominations at the Idyllwild Film Festival including Best Actress and Best Screenplay. Radio Silence was selected by HBO to compete as 1 of 5 films in ABFF's short film competition and has won many other awards.

I have worked many positions behind the camera, but most love telling the story in front of the camera.

Thanks for working with me on my next booking!
