Armie Hicks Jr.

After graduating from high school, Armie enrolled at NC A&T University intent on a career in computing. However, he caught the acting bug while appearing in student drama productions and minoring in film studies. Soon after landing a role on the Emmy Award-winning TV series (ATLANTA), he moved to Los Angeles to pursue his dreams. His filmmaking work is steeped in activism and his cinematic style combines rhythm, image, and social critique with digital innovation to challenge traditional narrative structures. His films incite social justice and provoke reflection on the state of African American realities. You can follow him on social media @Armie_Strong.
