Annanétha Rickia Mitchell is a multidisciplinary performer and entrepreneur whose passion for the arts emerged early—beginning with dance at the age of three, piano at five, acting and modeling at eight, and singing at thirteen. She cultivated her talents throughout high school and college, establishing a foundation in performance that would shape her diverse career. Her professional experience spans the entertainment industry; including an internship at the biggest modeling agency in the world, Ford Models, being a full-time makeup artist at MAC Cosmetics, and competing in the Miss Universe Organization’s preliminary Miss Florida USA pageant.

 

Driven by a commitment to service, she founded The Foundation by Rickia in 2011, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. Through The Foundation she continues her commitment to community impact with two signature programs: The New 24©, providing financial assistance to individuals and families in need, and Operation TATAS©, supporting breast cancer mastectomy survivors throughout their recovery with pro bono breast augmentations. In addition to her charity, she serves as owner of The Agency by Rickia, which encompasses both realty and lending divisions. She’s a licensed realtor, mortgage broker, and notary public using her company to help those who find every day housing and homeownership out of reach. Both companies over the years have become an extension of one another, focusing on one common goal; helping those who can no longer help themselves.

​

Annanétha took a break from the entertainment industry back in 2013 to 2023 in order to save the world, literally (more on that later). She returned by re-entering the acting scene and never looked back. She currently works across all four of her talents with an expertise in commercial/print campaigns, as well as television, film, voiceovers and theater. Continuing on with being a singer, songwriter, and recording artist, she's also professionally trained in ballet, tap, jazz, hip-hop, and pole dancing.

​

When she’s not performing, or saving the world, Annanétha enjoys the normalcies of life. You can find her around the house cooking, baking, gardening, or entertaining. When not at home, you’ll spot her on the golf course or tennis courts, running, swimming, or biking (think non Olympic Triathlete), or playing chess and poker. She’s always been a dancer so she’s a Pilates, Barre, and Yoga girlie by nature. She loves traveling the world, a good nap, and caviar and matcha might actually be two of her life’s greatest joys. As an Aussie dog Mom you can find her at all the cool dog events, because she’s not like a regular Mom (insert #MeanGirls movie plug). 

 

She is, has always been, and forever will be quite the quadruple threat…and she’s nowhere near done yet!
