Genevieve Ngosa Daniels is a New York City-based actor, dancer, and model

A proud graduate of The American Academy of Dramatic Arts, where she has been deeply immersed in the world of performance for film, television, and theatre. She is also a proud alumna of the Billie Holiday Theatre’s Black Arts Initiative, further grounding her work and commitment to telling bold, culturally rooted stories that reflect both legacy and liberation.

Born and raised in the vibrant heart of Guyana, and migrating to Barbados, allowed Genevieve to deepened her training in both the Grotowski and Stanislavski methods—because why choose between raw physicality and emotional truth when you can practice both?

Genevieve’s artistic journey spans continents and cultures, from Caribbean stages to the classical boards of New York. While at The Academy, she was further exposed to techniques pioneered by members of The Group Theatre and has been trained under celebrated artists such as Susan Pilar, Maggie Low, Yvette Heyliger, Ibsen Santos, Barbara Rubin, and Timothy D. Stickney—developing her range from emotionally grounded contemporary work to the sharp rhythms of Shakespearean verse.

She was invited back as a third-year member of The Academy Company, where she furthered her craft through main stage productions including Everybody by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins (dir. Ryan Quinn), Anatomy of a Suicide by Alice Birch (dir. Barbara Rubin), and Bakkhai by Euripides, in a lyrical translation by Anne Carson (again with direction from Ioanna Katsarou). In recognition of her artistry, professionalism, and creative spirit, Genevieve was awarded the Charles Jehlinger Award—the Academy’s highest honor, given to an artist who embodies excellence on and off the stage. But Genevieve’s creativity doesn’t stop at the footlights.

When she’s not auditioning, rehearsing, performing, or working behind the scenes, Genevieve can often be found with a book in one hand and a hot bowl of soup (her self-declared love language) in the other. A quiet observer of life and people, a passionate reader and emerging writer, she is currently workshopping screenplays and stage pieces that center her voice as a Caribbean woman—rich with rhythm, resilience, and perspective.

“Genevieve Ngosa is a storyteller with soul, spirit, and a spark that refuses to be dimmed and creating art, for her, is creating community, one story at a time.”
