Raised on a farm in Stone Mountain, Georgia, Tina has been a stuntwoman for more than 20 years working on over 100 film and tv shows. After moving to New York in 2001 she went on to stunt double for The Olsen Twins, Kelly Ripa, Jessica Simpson, Dakota Fanning, Kristen Bell and Hillary Duff among many others and is also a Regional and Off Broadway Character Actress. She has been nominated for 3 SAG-AFTRA awards and was the lead in an off-broadway show that hailed rave reviews. Most recently she has started to produce her own shows and short films. In 2018 she founded Stuntwomen United Network Inc. for stuntwomen around the world to provide them with necessary resources, training and mentoring programs. She is an advocate for diversity in stunt roles and working to change the mindset of writers, producers and directors for everyone who has a talent and passion to be a stunt performer. Stuntwomen United Network, Inc. (S.U.N.), is dedicated to breaking down barriers, bridging the gaps and empowering members so they may have an equal and fair opportunity for success in a male dominated industry. A stuntwoman's needs are an anomaly and getting help from appropriate sources can be a challenge. By providing financial assistance and support as well as scholarships for training and growth, S.U.N. women will be better prepared and trained for their job giving them a step up where this is not only necessary but critical to their lives.
