Arsema Thomas (she/they) recently made their film debut with the release of 'She Taught Love' on Hulu and Disney+, in which she plays Mali Waters, a sports agent at the center of a beautiful love story. This follows her television debut as the coveted co-lead role "Young Lady Danbury" in Netflix's highly anticipated 'Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story'. Arsema earned a Bachelor's Degree in Physics from Carnegie Mellon and a Master's in Chronic Disease Epidemiology/Public Health from Yale University. In 2022, Arsema graduated from the prestigious London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA). Arsema's diverse linguistic abilities in English, French, Spanish, Yoruba, and Amharic can be attributed to their innate passion for travel and immersion in different cultures. Throughout their life, Arsema had the privilege of living in several countries, including South Africa, Uganda, Kenya, Togo, Comoros, Benin, and India. These experiences fostered a deep appreciation for the continent of Africa, drawing inspiration from their Ethiopian and Nigerian background. Arsema's journey is a testament to their talent, resilience, and compassion, and it leaves an indelible mark on both the artistic and humanitarian realms. Their strong philanthropic ties to Africa further highlight their commitment to making a positive impact on the world.
