Splendidly arrayed with the undeniable talents of modeling, acting and dancing, Tysha Williams is taking the entertainment industry by storm.  With an air of confidence that proclaims, “Yes, I can,” she hails from Atlanta (also affectionately known as “Black Hollywood”) by way of Missouri and now dwells in Los Angeles.  She looks forward to blazing an unforgettable path on the runway, on the big screen and onstage.  Simply put, Tysha Williams is certainly one to watch.

From the time Tysha was very young, it was no secret that she was destined to excel.  It would not be odd to find Tysha imitating the latest dance moves she’d seen on the latest video or awards performance.  Much of her dance ability is self-taught, and she counts icons Michael and Janet Jackson as her greatest influences.  “As a kid, I really desired to do gymnastics, but that was really a luxury for minorities in my small Missouri hometown,” Tysha says.  Nonetheless, she wasn’t dissuaded by the fact.  With aspirations of someday dancing onstage with R&B  sensation, the late Aaliyah, she put her skills to work by being a valued part of her high school’s cheerleading team, and she also performed hip hop dance. These experiences only paved the way for her to emerge as a leader, wherein she ultimately was chosen to choreograph many of the cheerleaders’ routines. 

While continuing to hone her skills as an outstanding dancer, Tysha auditioned for the cheerleading teams of the Atlanta Falcons and the Dallas Cowboys.  She gained the favor of the latter, but it was an unquenchable thirst to follow her first love of acting that caused her to deny the Cowboys’ offer and pursue formal studies at Georgia Perimeter College.  Tysha holds an associate’s degree in business administration; her minor is in performing arts.  While at Georgia Perimeter, she received the theater arts scholarship, an award that speaks volumes to her theatrical abilities. Her experience at Georgia Perimeter was merely a starting point, as she looks forward to earning a bachelor’s degree in fashion merchandising. This feat will allow her to accomplish another goal of launching a handbag line which will also feature boots.  The two fashion items are among her favorites.   

Tysha’s studies and expertise in dance have given her international acclaim in that she has taught dance in Hong Kong.  Quite versatile, Tysha has learned the languages of Spanish, French and Japanese, and her dance genres include Hip hop, House, Reggae, Jazz and Salsa.  Her college experience also gave her exposure to Modern Dance and Ballet. She has had the opportunity to work under the tutelage of international dancer and choreographer Bobby “Millage” of New York City, Atlanta instructor and actress Sally Robinson and Devyne Stephens, a noted choreographer and producer in Atlanta who has worked with everyone from Usher, Ciara and TLC among others.

Tysha landed her first main feature role, Rosa, in Workaholics Films’ “Differences” while in Atlanta. Upon venturing out to L.A. she garnered background work in season two of MTV’s “Disaster Date,” as well as pilot work for CBS Studios’ “Pink House.”  She is pleased to announce her feature role in the upcoming short film, “Horror in Miami.”  Other credits include being cast as an extra in Tyler Perry’s “Diary of a Mad Black Woman,” a scorned woman in Jenna McKenzie’s “Vagina Monologues” and she has played the role of Amanda (the mother) in Tennessee Williams’ “Glass Menagerie.”

Not selfish in her endeavors, Tysha anticipates embarking upon philanthropic initiatives to include the development of housing for single parent or low-income families, in her home town and eventually spreading abroad.
