Early life

Career

[edit]

According to her, she never wanted to be an actress until her mom told her "You will make a good actress" after noticing her unique talent in mimicking her school teachers.[4] In 2011, she played the role of Shaniqua in the popular Atlanta TV series. During interviews with Best of Nollywood Magazine and YES International Magazine Sylvia made national headlines when asked if she had any boundaries or limits in her acting profession, she replied "I don’t have any boundaries because my body is my laptop.
