Written by:
Makeda is a Guyanese-American playwright, actress, and producer with a proclivity to mention her Brooklyn upbringing (and her unwavering love of Buffy, the Vampire Slayer) at least twice, per conversation! She graduated from New York University, with a BFA in Theater. Her passion lies in telling stories about Black family dynamics, self-discovery, and addiction through the lens of Black, Queer protagonists. Primarily based in LA, Makeda is a co-founder of Circle of Writers LA (sponsored by Final Draft and Coverfly) and the Ignition Project at EST/LA. She developed her play HAMMER at Moving Art’s MADLab development program and is an HBO All-Access Fellowship and Sundance Uprise Grant finalist, as well as a member of SAG/AFTRA. Makeda will begin pursuing her MFA at Northwestern University in the fall!
