ABOUT ME!
Kendall is an electric NYC-based actor currently in her junior year at New York University, training at the Atlantic Acting School. While "actor" is her leading title, she thrives in a multifaceted artistic life—exploring singing, dancing, directing, teaching, and social activism with equal passion.
Recent credits include Brutus in Julius Caesar, Jane in Pride and Prejudice, and serving as Artistic Director of Fine Line Theatre Company. This May, the company will debut its inaugural production: Anatomy of a Suicide.
She hails from Newark, Delaware, a town she credits for shaping her creative spirit and giving her the space to walk confidently into her artistry. She’s a proud lover of Beyoncé, Hayley Williams, her high school Civil Liberties unit, and monthly hyperfixations—her current obsession: Yellowjackets.
Kendall is deeply infatuated with acting as the art of being human—of living truthfully through imagined worlds. As a Black woman, her identity is inseparable from her work, informing every choice, rhythm, and moment on stage. There is not a world where she is not a Black woman, and her art is no exception.
When she’s not on stage, you can find her strumming her guitar, learning to cook the perfect steak, curating hyper-specific playlists, or trying (again) to convince her friends to watch The Sixth Sense.
The ability to tell stories is a privilege—and she is endlessly grateful to be trusted with it.
“She’s such a professional—a very mature artist, and it’s evident in how she handles herself in the room and interact with her fellow artists.”
-Robert Vail, Atlantic Theatre Company
