Quaneesha – better known to friends and fans as Mimi – is an NYC-based actor who is a member of the quartet of young Black women at the center of the new movie trilogy, She EVIL.

We sat down with Mimi a little while back, at the beginning of her acting journey. At the time, she was spending her days “just working…I work every day. And if I’m not working, I’m either in acting class or I’m at home hanging out.”

Mimi’s Most Likely To Is: "Most Likely to Be Trying to Balance Everything"

She told the story behind how she began taking acting classes after graduating college. We talked about the many aspiring actors who arrive in New York City and Los Angeles every year, and about the biggest misconception these young hopefuls should check at the door while chasing their acting dreams.

Mimi talked about her path of personal growth over the past few years, and spoke about how she maintains boundaries around her personal life while remaining active on social media. We talked about her experience growing up with a twin sister, and how their relationship has evolved over the years.
