Hi, my name is Bueka Uwemedimo. I am a British,Nigerian actor, singer, writer and producer.

I moved from London, England after a successful and fulfilling theatre career in search of fresh opportunities and challenges in the United States. Since making this transition, I have been fortunate to collaborate on a number of exciting and rewarding projects, several of which are highlighted below.
