The comedic powerhouse has exploded on the screen playing opposite Adam Samberg in BROOKLYN 99, YOUNG SHELDON, THE GOLDBERGS, and in the Emmy award-winning A BLACK LADY SKETCH SHOW.

LaNisa is the co-creator of Hashtag Booked. The groundbreaking Instagram sketch series which started in 2018 with co-creator Danielle Pinnock, examines the joys and heartaches of being an actress of color in the entertainment industry. Hashtag Booked’s content has reached millions of views and has received national acclaim from media outlets including Forbes, Essence Magazine, and CNN.
A commercial queen, Frederick has been in over 60 national commercials working alongside celebrities such as Kevin Hart, Queen Latifah, and Amy Poehler.

Passionate about education, she has taught in both traditional and non-traditional education settings, curating arts-based programming for underserved student populations, including incarcerated students, recently-released youth, and students with severe cognitive disabilities.
