Who Am I?

Born in the birthplace of aviation, Dayton, Ohio, and shaped by the city that gave us the blues, Memphis, Tennessee, Tameishia Peterson is the best of both worlds—Midwestern grit meets Southern soul, with a whole lot of New York hustle in between.

A proud SAG-AFTRA and AEA member, she’s graced screens in FBI, The Other Two, and Jolie. And trust, her IMDb is only getting longer—so limber up before you scroll.

Armed with a B.A. in Theater from Ohio State, she’s trained in scene study, on-camera technique, improv (UCB Advanced Study), and even clown and mask work—because why not keep ‘em guessing? Whether it’s drama, comedy, or something in between, Tameishia brings characters to life with depth, honesty, and just the right amount of sass.

But acting isn’t just about craft—it’s about living. And Tameishia lives big. From bursting into decade- and genre-spanning songs based on random word associations to spontaneous dance breaks and quality time with her four nieces, she soaks up life’s joys, awkwardness, and triumphs—all fuel for storytelling that entertains, resonates, and uplifts.

Her mission? To tell stories that matter, make an impact, and leave a legacy—one unforgettable role at a time. When she’s not on set, you’ll find her on social media commenting on life, at a Janet Jackson concert, or laughing with loved ones. Because the best art comes from a life well lived.
