About Akiva

Akiva Vita is an intuitive creator with an unmatched passion for the arts! Born and raised in the Atlantic Northeast, Akiva started to develop a keen interest in the creative industry when she was young. Through her education at both an undergraduate and masters degree level, Akiva has established herself as a team player with a warm personality, an effective communicator, trustworthy person, and an individual who always upholds a good work ethic and a positive attitude. She has dedicated herself to lifelong learning, as she seeks to expand her areas of expertise through normal classroom arrangements as well as self-taught online classes.  

Her interests outside her schooling include writing, painting, photography, video work, and – most recently – voice acting and voice over! She attributes her creativity to her passion and deep love of storytelling. Akiva particularly likes science fiction, fantasy, supernatural/paranormal fiction, and psychological thrillers, and is thrilled and honored to begin working with fellow creatives and storytellers in this latest medium of interest!
