Shannon Mara Teemull is a mixed-race actor, dancer, singer, writer, director, and producer. She was born in Montreal, Canada, to Trinidadian parents, and has one older brother. At the age of 2, her family moved to Saudi Arabia where her father and mother worked for an American Oil company. She came back to Toronto for High School at a well-known Boarding School in Toronto. She then graduated from University of Toronto with an Honours Bachelor of Arts Degree in Languages, Linguistics and Literature in French and Spanish, with two Minors in Music and Drama. She also graduated from Randolph College for the Performing Arts with a Diploma in the Performing Arts. Additionally, she earned her Cambridge University CELTA Certificate to Teach English as a Second Language. Since she was 3, she has been performing in Dance Shows and Musicals. In 2006, she transitioned over to Film acting, eventually starting her own production company, ShMarTee Co. in 2014. She is currently working on her first documentary feature film. It is based on stories she was told in Toronto by people being judged incorrectly. Their stories touch on racism, sexism, homophobia, religious prejudice, inequality based on culture or ethnicity, discrimination due to accents, socioeconomic level, geographic location or other stereotypes. Ultimately, the film is trying to address the human flaw of judging others before we really know them. The film’s goal is to encourage us to start seeing each other with openness, compassion, understanding, and love. Shannon's motto is, "Spread the Love." She truly believes that is why God put her on this earth. She uses her talents to achieve this objective every day of her life.
