THE KIANA DANCIE 

The Kiana Dancie is a powerhouse actress, author, comedian, transformational speaker,

coach, CPR Cell Phone Repair Franchisee, founder and director of B.A.G.S. a nonprofit organization. Through "Baggage Claim," her international women's empowerment celebration, she candidly and shares her story of being a child molestation survivor and how she turned that pain into purpose — and, more importantly, how she teaches others to do the same through laugh therapy and transparent conversations designed to help attendees start their healing process.

 

During the pandemic, Kiana joined forces with organizations like Lift Atlanta and

Life Changers Christian Community Center to provide food and other essentials

to help alleviate the financial strain many experienced during that difficult time.

Additionally, she continues to spend countless hours working to heal broken

women and girls by giving them the tools to become more confident, emotionally

stable, and financially secure thru one-on-one and group sessions.

 

Due to her consistent activism, Kiana was recognized by the White House for her

humanitarian efforts to build stronger ties to the community through volunteering

and is a 2022 recipient of The President's Lifetime Achievement Award from the

Biden Administration.

 

Kiana was one of the original hosts of the TV One nationally syndicated talk

show “Sister Circle Live”. Her amazing performance during the filming of Kevin

Hart’s LOL at the 2018 Montreal Comedy Festival led to her to be casted in two

movies – a BET feature, “One Crazy Christmas” and the Marlon Wayans Netflix

hit “Sextuplets.” Kiana has also toured with Kountry Wayne, Jess Hilarious,

Earthquake, and most recently opened for Dave Chappelle.

 

In addition to her tireless community service, she's the owner/operator of a

thriving CPR Cell Phone Repair franchise in Duluth, GA, a proud mama's girl, and

a big sister who enjoys spending time with her family.
