Nina is a Brooklyn-based creative who loves collage, film photography, fiber art, and watercolor.

She finds immense joy in helping others find their voices and believes that every person is meant to create.

Not getting into law school was possibly the best thing to happen to Judy Lei, a native New Yorker, who experienced a midlife crisis at the age of 22. She quickly pivoted from being a Congressional Caseworker to studying acting, writing, and improv at the Barrow Group Theater Company and the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre. Since then, she wrote, performed, produced, and toured two solo shows - The World’s Greatest (dir. MC Jin) and 28: Still F*cked Up in NYC & Los Angeles. She turned her first solo show into a feature film, THE WORLD’S GREATEST, which premiered at the Asian American International Film Festival in NYC & the Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival. She recently finished her second film (short) called FOREVER MAYBE and is awaiting festival acceptances. She was most recently the Dialect Coach on INTERIOR CHINATOWN (coming out November 19, 2024 on Hulu!). She hopes to spend the rest of her life telling stories about the NYC Asian American experience through comedy, television, and film.
