Born in Brooklyn, New York, Kim Baptiste first began her career in the Print and Commercial Modeling Industry,

but soon became exposed to the world of acting back in 2006,

when she worked as a stand-in for Paula Patton in Deja Vu, starring Denzel Washington.

A moment she would never forget, it wouldn't be long before she'd begin her journey as an actor.

Through years of studying the Ivanna Chubbuck Technique with Jerry Katz,

(The same technique utilized by stars like Gerard Butler, James Franco, Halle Berry, and even Brad Pitt)

She would slowly begin to learn how to truly embrace her role.

But she didn't just stop there...

She continued her training, working with other coaches through workshops, online classes, and private sessions for years.

Dedicating herself to her acting career and slowly honing and developing the skills that would soon form the solid foundation of the career she has today.

Baptiste first made her acting debut with a small role, playing "Kathy El Toro" in the short film Where Y'at (Hello) in 2012.

She went on to appear in countless movies and TV shows and play a variety of characters.

Playing roles in Dramas and Crime series,

such as Dr. Anders in NCIS: New Orleans (2015), Detective Lund in I Killed My BFF (2015),

the Attorney and Army Lieutenant Angelica Hamilton in The Ultimate Legacy (2016),

And even the lead role of Cathy in the short drama Touching Mary (2016),

To roles in a number of Comedies:

Playing the co-star role of Helen Green in Tyler Perry's Sistas (2019)

Guest starring in the TV series Bigger (2021) as she played the role of Rita.

And has even appeared in a 2nd Tyler Perry series in her breakout role as a guest star,

Playing Mona Wilson on Tyler Perry's hit show Zatima (2023).
