Nina is a native of Philadelphia, PA. During her adolescence she was very shy. Her parents wanted her to become more confident and social so they enrolled Nina into Freedom Theatre, a popular African American theatre arts school in Philadelphia, PA. Nina found her passion for music and theatre, participating in many professional shows and showcases over her 15 years there. After high school, Nina wanted to continue her education in music and was accepted into Berklee College of Music with a World Tour Scholarship. She found her passion working at the Cambridge YMCA where she started a musical theatre club. Her gift of working with children and bringing out their best selves and talents was undeniable. Parents and teachers alike started to take notice. The popularity of the program grew quickly and 4 productions were completed while Nina ran the program until her relocation back to Philadelphia. She completed her studies with Berklee College of Music in 2012, returning home ready to make a difference in the Tri state area. Currently Nina is the performing arts teacher at Sprout University School of the Arts. To date she has directed and coordinated 4 performances and showcases for the school. Nina also contracts with local organizations for music, theatre workshops, programs and camps and builds creative arts curriculum for Faith based organizations. Nina has a passion and commitment to the arts and bringing quality programming to youth in the Tri-State area. She desires to give all students the teaching she received which motivated her to become a performer and teacher of the arts. Her goal is to give every child who wants to experience quality arts programming the ability and accessibility to it.
