Nicole Stewart is a Mexican-American actress, producer, and creator from Mexico City with a lifelong habit of making things up. It started with elaborate productions for her family, complete with invented stories and the conviction that everyone should probably sit down and watch. Eventually, she found a more practical use for that instinct: making a career out of it.

​

After moving to New York City to pursue her MFA, Nicole began building a life and career between two countries, navigating the particular experience of belonging to more than one place without fitting neatly into just one. Moving between Mexico and the United States has given her a particular interest in identity, family, and the many ways people can love each other deeply while driving each other absolutely crazy.

​

Alongside acting, she develops original projects that she intends to produce and star in across both countries. She is drawn to characters who are messy, contradictory, funny when they shouldn't be, and capable of surprising even themselves. As a creator, she gravitates toward stories that find the humor in uncomfortable situations and the uncomfortable truths hiding inside a joke.

​

Her Mexican-American background and her family are central to how she sees the world. They have shaped her sense of humor, her understanding of people, and her fascination with the gap between who we think we are and how we actually behave. She is especially interested in the things people reveal accidentally: the deflection, the overreaction, the joke that lands a little too close to home.

​

Whether acting, producing, or developing something of her own, Nicole is interested in work that feels specific, alive, and a little unpredictable. She likes stories that trust audiences to sit with contradictions, laugh at the wrong moment, and recognize something familiar in someone they might not otherwise understand.
