Medium Skilled =    Highly Skilled =    Professional =

Hey, I'm Jada Samira hailing from Baltimore, Maryland! I currently reside in Atlanta because I attend Spelman College. I am currently studying pre-law, in hopes of being able to help inner city youth, if my acting career does not take off. I am a very athletic, talented, and motivated person. My dream is to become an actress. Most people think that I want to be famous because of the money, which, is partially true. I want the money, not for myself, but for future generations of stars. I want them to know that you do not need to come from money in order for your dreams to come true. In terms of role models, I have a few who most people would disagree with, but I don't care. My favorite singer is Ashanti. I am her BIGGEST fan. I love how professional and down to earth she is. As far as acting is concerned, I mostly look up to Sanaa Lathan. Many people may not know her by name, but they do know her roles. I think that is one thing that I like about her because people know her when they see her, and many respect her for the artist she is. In the dance world, I look mostly to Laurie Anne Gibson. She pushes people to do things they never thought they could do, and I love that about her.

I am a sports fanatic. I love playing and watching all types of sports. Basketball, football, dancing, track and field, tennis, volleyball, soccer, etc. I love it!!! I am in love with music. I make up dances to many of my fav songs, as well as write my own songs. I used to play piano and guitar, but you know what they say...If you don't use it, you lose it...and I lost it!!! However, I am reteaching myself how to play guitar. As far as my celebrity (when I get there) I want to do soooooooooo much to give back. I want to open a performing arts center for children who can't afford to do things like that. I want to start a Sickle Cell Anemia foundation for research, awareness, education, and a cure.

In terms of the public's perception of me, I want to be a mix of my three main role models already established in the entertainment industry. As far as personal goals, I want more than anything to be an actress. I love dancing and modeling as well, so as long as I can do at least one of these, I am good.
