Nedra, a former student of biology, decided to pivot and pursue a passion for the performing arts, enrolling in a program at the University of Richmond to study theater and dance. This marked the beginning of a journey that would eventually lead her to earn a Master of Fine Arts degree in Acting from the prestigious Actors Studio Drama School.
Today, as of 2016, Nedra calls Brooklyn, New York her home, residing in the vibrant and culturally rich borough that has no doubt inspired and influenced her artistic endeavors.
