Born in Biloxi, Mississippi but raised in Chicago, Illinois, Tanesha sang as a child in the church choir and was blessed with a rare opportunity to sing with Gospel legend Mahalia Jackson. Tanesha dreamed of being a performer as early as the first grade. She pursued those dreams and honed her talent while attending Western Illinois University majoring in Theatre and Mass Communications. At Western Illinois, she met and befriended versatile character actor Michael Boatman. They remain fond acquaintances to this day. After graduation her journey soon brought her to New York City. While rooming with a townhouse full of other aspiring artists in Brooklyn and waiting tables in roller skates at Ed Debevics, casting agent Todd Thaler gave Tanesha her first big break that would earn her a SAG card. She was cast a "Singing Nurse" in "Mr. Wonderful" starring Matt Dillon and Annabella Sciorra, directed by Anthony Minghella. Tanesha has always been concerned with inspiring our youth and giving back. She joined the "City Kids" project in the 1990's and worked with the organization along side fellow alumni and actors: Malik Yoba, Lisa Nicole Carson and Donald Faison among others. Acting and singing have always gone hand in hand with Tanesha. She focused her energy on singing and found herself in an R&B Pop girl group signed by Capital Records named "The Earth Gyrlz". The album was entitled "Fully Equipped" and the 1st single was titled "Love of Mine". Unfortunately the Capital Records relationship was short lived but not before the group was flown the L. A. to perform on "Soul Train" with Don Cornelius. The life of a performer is truly like a roller-coaster with it's ups and downs. When one door closes another door opens.

Tanesha was cast in the production and featured as a "Fluff Girl". The show ran in Amsterdam at "Show Biz City" for an entire year. Upon returning to New York,Tanesha was blessed to find work acting and singing. She landed an assortment of national and regional commercial spots for Mr. Clean, TD Bank, Lending Tree and was a singing angel for Philly Cream Cheese along side future "Pussy Cat Doll", Carmit Bachar.
