We had the good fortune of connecting with Nekeith and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Nekeith, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
I think risk taking is vey crucial for anyones career, you definitely need to have a strategic plan. Taking risks has played a major component in my career because I believe in my art with my whole heart and I take risks to be bold and go against the society norms.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I am an Actress, Model & Recording Artist. I have been in my artistry over eight years now, and I love what I do. What sets me apart from others is that I am authentic with my art and my work drive. I got to where I am today by working hard, learning the entertainment business and having faith in my dream, my family and god. It has not been easy, I have been faced with many challenges especially by being a Trans woman in this industry. I have overcome the challenges by praying and having the support from my fans the Royalties and family and believing in myself. One lesson that I have learned on my journey is to count on yourself and to always go hard and put your best foot forward. I want the world to know to always believe in yourself and to go for dreams, you have what it takes to achieve anything you put your mind to!

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Living in Los Angeles has been a life changing experience, I love living in the city! I would take my friends to a Lakers basketball game then go to Santa Monica Pier to get some tasty treat and have some fun on the rides and walk on the beach. Lastly we have to get some seafood and go sight seeing in Hollywood!

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I would love to Shoutout my supporters the Royalties! Thank you for always riding with me and for your genuine love & support! We are in this together to the end and beyond, Lets show the world that we are not going anywhere and make our mark!
