Christiana Faith Nance

I’m Christiana Faith Nance, though I go by Faith. I’m a 28-year-old Middle Tennessee native, wife, mother of two, and real estate professional who is stepping into acting with a lifetime of real-world experience behind me. My path to acting hasn’t been a traditional one. I spent nearly a decade working in the automotive industry before making the decision to leave a stable career and build something of my own in real estate. That transition forced me to become comfortable with uncertainty, rejection, pressure, vulnerability, and being seen—all things that have ultimately made me more confident in who I am and more willing to pursue the things I once convinced myself were unrealistic. I’m naturally more reserved when I first enter a room, but once I’m comfortable, my personality comes out quickly. I’m sarcastic, expressive, observant, curious, and a little bit of a goofball. I love horror, true crime, history, Star Wars, video games, tattoos, music, and anything with a compelling story behind it. I’m equally comfortable being polished and professional or completely unfiltered and human. As a mother, wife, business owner, and someone who has experienced major changes in both my personal and professional life, I understand that people are rarely just one thing. Strength can coexist with fear. Confidence can exist alongside insecurity. Someone can be funny while hurting, composed while overwhelmed, or fiercely independent while still needing other people. Those contradictions are what make characters feel real to me, and they are what I want to explore as a performer. I’m especially drawn to roles with emotional depth—characters who are complicated, flawed, strong-willed, vulnerable, sarcastic, unconventional, or carrying more beneath the surface than they initially reveal. I’m also interested in comedy, horror, thriller, drama, crime, action, commercials, and character-driven projects. I am continuing to develop my craft and understand that entering this industry means there will always be more to learn. I don’t want to pretend to have experience I haven’t earned yet. What I can bring is authenticity, professionalism, emotional honesty, a strong work ethic, the ability to take direction, and a genuine willingness to learn. I’m not pursuing acting because I expect it to be easy. I’m pursuing it because I finally reached a point in my life where I would rather take the risk of trying something that genuinely excites me than spend years wondering what might have happened if I had.
