A graduate of Columbia College with a BA in Theater, she is a passionate storyteller committed to shifting the narrative for Jamaicans in Hollywood.

Born in Jamaica, Sardia began writing and performing skits at just five years old and earned her first professional acting credit on the iconic Jamaican children's program Ring Ding with Miss Lou. Her early love for storytelling evolved into a dynamic career spanning acting, writing, sketch comedy, theater directing, and producing for both television and film.

Sardia’s talent has been recognized with several honors, including BroadwayWorld’s Best Solo Production and the Innovative Woman in Theater Award at the Hollywood Fringe Festival for her autobiographical solo show, From a Yardie to a Yankee.

From a Yardie to a Yankee is a gripping, one-woman theatrical experience that showcases Sardia’s powerful storytelling and acting range. Portraying 11 real-life characters, she recounts her harrowing journey from the violent streets of Kingston, Jamaica, to the perilous undercurrents of Chicago’s drug trade. The show has captivated audiences and critics alike with performances across New York, Atlanta, Boston, Los Angeles, Chicago, the Bahamas, and Jamaica.
