is the creator and writer of the webisode series Life, Love, & Hollywood. Born and raised in Washington, DC to
Nigerian parents, Ihuoma is the third born of seven children. Though her interest in acting did not spark until the age of twelve, Ihuoma considers acting to be her third love. She insists that her interest in acting evolved from her first
two loves: reading and writing. “I used
to read about five or six books a week.
I read so many great books that I
begin writing my own. It helped me to
escape my life. I fell in love with these
characters that I read and wrote about
that I wanted to become them. And
from there my love of acting blossom,”
Ihuoma stated in a recent interview.
Along with these interests, Ihuoma managed to pursue music, learning the
clarinet, and also participating in
cheerleading in high school. After high
school, Ihuoma pursued a college
degree. She is an alumna of North
Carolina A&T State University where
she received a B.S. in Journalism and
Mass Communications. After
succeeding in college, Ihuoma made
the jump across country to fulfill her
dream of acting. She can be seen in the film "The Prey" and the upcoming film "The Cabdriver".
Parallel of pursuing her acting
career, Ihuoma also plans to continue
her writing and venture into directing
and producing.
