Actor Kent Sanders is a native New Yorker who originally hails from Hollis, Queens and now calls Washington, D.C. his home.

Some of his most notable television work includes appearances on the critically acclaimed Netflix series House of Cards (2013) and Veep (2012) on HBO, as well as roles in TV One, YouTube and AFI productions.
Prior to acting, Kent studied IT Networking Security and received certification from the Chubb Institute. It was via Chubb that Kent developed an interest in acting when fellow alum suggested that Kent's height and unique voice would place him in high demand as a performer in the industry. Further encouraged by his large, loving family, he developed a passion for the craft and is grateful to be a working actor.

Kent credits much of his talent to working onstage with the Ebeyana Studio Theatre and starring in their live productions of "Step Out," "Secrets Reveler," "Payday Is Coming" and "The Gospel." Honing his creativity through the study of theater and improvisation helped prepare him for a career on stage and on set.
