NJ Brown is the Founder of ActSeven. He considers himself a storyteller, through his acting (theatrical, commercial, improv, and voice-over), writing, directing, and producing. He has numerous festival awards and you can find him in films on Amazon Prime, Netflix, Tubi, and a couple of voiceover roles in a documentary which made the Academy Awards’ Shortlist.  NJ also enjoys creating opportunities for other actors and non-actors to show their talents, and create together.

In his free time, NJ likes goofing off in parks, beaches, or on hikes with his Lab-Mix, “Stout.” And of course he enjoys hitting up movie theaters, catching plays, and going to live concerts with friends, but sneaking in some alone time to just chill gaming on his computer, binge watching a series or anime while eating Peanut M&M’s, or just laying on a the couch reading a screenplay works too.

Jim Last, a perfectly normal human male person, born from official human parents, has been acting since 2019 when he took his first acting class because it was scary. Since then, he has appeared in commercials, training videos, and short films. He has also performed in local theatrical productions including Titus Andronicus, A Red Plaid Shirt, All My Sons, The Dinner Party, and By the Way, Meet Vera Stark.

Jim spends most of his daylight hours working as a mild mannered computer engineer, but at night transforms into a resident of Rancho Cordova where he lives with his dog and two spiteful plants.

Brenda Yanez is a commercial, theatrical, and voice over actor with a love for bringing characters to life, whether on camera or inside a recording booth talking to herself (professionally, of course).

When not performing, Brenda is usually surrounded by an ever-growing collection of arts and crafts projects, definitely not too many houseplants, and the occasional pile of thriller and spicy “Romantasy” novels. She shares her personal space with a very sweet cat named Chikis  (short for Chiki-tayshun) a lovable, slightly cross-eyed cutie with a habit of walking into walls and stealing the show.

Cheree Ramon loves the arts. She is an actress who has worked behind the scenes on several productions, from logistics/planning to working on set as an AD. She has recently expanded her love of the craft into writing and directing. She’s a creative at heart.

She is a life-long dance enthusiast who also loves to sew and belt out to the radio as she drives. She stays active through yoga, swimming, and any group fitness class she can take for fun.Her favorite food is eggs… or maybe potato chips… or possibly goji berries. She also practices mindfulness the best she can, and is aware of her inability to pick a favorite of anything.

Sean Murphy is an actor passionate about bringing stories of everyday people in extraordinary circumstances to life… sometimes heartfelt, sometimes chaotic, but always entertaining. Since 2019, he has been performing in local sketch comedy theater around Sacramento, sharpening his comedic timing and character work.

Offstage, Sean enjoys movies, TV, sports, and live theater, often developing new characters and accents wherever inspiration strikes, even mid-drive. A self-proclaimed animal lover, he shares his home with his tuxedo cat, Plopper (also known as Sir Plopperton, David Plopperfield, and Plop-tart), who keeps life just as entertaining offstage as it is on.

Julieth loves acting since she was a kid. She was born and raised in Colombia, where she also studied marketing. Moved to the US in 2014 and decided to go back to school and learn more about performing in 2020. She also decided to try her hand at writing sketches for the team as well.

She enjoys going for walks with her dog, working out, singing, dancing. And of course visiting her family in Colombia and spending time with them.
