We had a great conversation with actress Sh’Kia Augustin on The Chris & Sandy Show. We talked about family, acting, sacrifices, her career, she told some really great stories to a whole lot more!
Sh’Kia Augustin is an American actress, writer, producer, and singer born to an African American mother and Jamaican father. She was born and raised in small-town Oakland, Florida, where she began singing in the church choir from a young age.
Augustin started playing the flute in middle school and attended Florida Atlantic University on a music/band scholarship. She went on to graduate with a BBA in finance and music business. Her writing journey began at FAU during her tenure as the President of the Black Student Union. She co-wrote and directed a stage play titled “The Makings of a Man: Penis Monologues,” which was performed for the entire student body.
Since then, her pilot scripts have been placed in various screenplay competitions, including as a Quarterfinalist in Screencraft and a Finalist in WeScreenplay. After graduating, she began performing in community theaters and local film productions and writing, producing, and starring in her own web series and short films.
