Nyoka Boswell hails from the South and unpacks a wealth of stories and ancestry when developing the myriad of characters she can play. She has played Haitian, Jamaican, Bahamian, Nigerian and a Brooklyn, New York native, as she is adept at dialects and accents. When she isn't auditioning for roles in TV and film, she practices stand up comedy and has traveled the globe as a flight attendant, which she claims gives her a unique POV of cultures and people and social dynamics. She makes her home in Los Angeles, but also works as a local hire actor in Alabama, Atlanta and New Orleans. She met her talent manager at a national talent competition where she was awarded "most well rounded" and the monologue categories. Nyoka (pronounced Nye-OH-Kah) is signed to CTA for Theatrical rep, and the parent agency, Commercial Talent for on-camera commercials. She is also signed with agencies in the South East. An abundance of upbeat energy, vitality and a laugh that turns heads, Nyoka Boswell enjoys collaborating on wacky comedy, deep dramas and insightful indies. Nyoka also has a strong track record in live theatre. Credits include "Dear White People," on Netflix.
