Akira Jackson
ACTRESS
& MODEL
From an early age my family would describe me as many things; Talkative, sassy, funny, clumsy… but above all DRAMATIC. So it should’ve been to no one’s surprise that I would pursue a career in the arts. Being born in Alabama and raised in rural Georgia, there wasn’t much to do but use your imagination. My sister and i would always act out little skits that we wrote and as I grew older I found myself wanting to do more. I joined drama class and fell in LOVE, though it wasn’t until I was 14 that I began my career. I wrote my own monologues, typed up my own scripts and researched everything I could about what makes a great actor. I was determined to be the best. After booking my first job on a student film, albeit not being the best production… I knew this was my destiny.
