Wunmi Fowora

Wunmi Fowora born as Adewunmi Moyin-Oluwa Ogunfowora is a Nigerian- American actress, producer and director. Brooklyn born & New Jersey raised, Wunmi (pronounced "Woo-me") had an extremely creative mind at a very young age. From engaging in various types of dance by age 4, winning a multitude of county-wide drawing & slogan contests by 10 & consistently winning national & tri-state singing competitions in choral music by 14, Wunmi was able to excel in her hobbies outside of her home. Although she gained admittance to an Arts High School & was performing in all her school plays, her parents had her set to study in the medical field by the time she applied for college. Once Wunmi applied for Art schools and got accepted, she was ready to turn her hobbies into a career.
