Biography
Nene Nwoko is an actress, producer, and voiceover artist whose work has been featured in Bob Hearts Abishola, S.W.A.T., and The Chosen. Born and raised in Nigeria, Nene's love for storytelling was sparked early by two VHS tapes her mother brought home — The Sound of Music and My Fair Lady. Raised in a household where music and art were woven into everyday life, with a mother who taught music education and a father who loved Broadway, Nene’s creative spark was kindled early. Watching those iconic films, she felt a deep connection to the power of storytelling, which led her to explore acting, singing, and performing in school productions.
Her journey into voiceover work began later, when she discovered the world of animated films and audiobooks. The vibrant characters and imaginative worlds in movies like Cinderella and 101 Dalmatians introduced Nene to the magical possibilities of using her voice to create and transform. A pivotal moment came when a friend introduced her to the world of audiobooks — a perfect opportunity for Nene to embrace her love for storytelling through a new medium. The experience ignited a passion for voiceover work, where she could use the full range of her emotional depth and versatility to bring stories to life.
Now, Nene brings her voice to a wide range of projects, from animated series and commercials to narrations. Her voice is as dynamic and expressive as her acting, infusing each role with warmth, empathy, and a touch of the magic that first captured her imagination as a child. As a passionate advocate for diversity in media, Nene is dedicated to ensuring that all voices are heard, creating spaces where listeners can see themselves reflected in the stories she tells.
Whether behind the mic or in front of the camera, Nene is always crafting worlds where creativity and connection shine — where stories have the power to inspire and transform, just as they did for her all those years ago.
