Lisagaye Tomlinson is a Jamaican-born actress who emigrated to the United States in her youth. She is known for Good Trouble, Jane the Virgin, CSI: Cyber, and Scorpion. She taught herself to play guitar at the age of 14 and co-wrote, co-produced, and released her first solo album with songwriting partner Kevin West. Originally, she’d planned to become a university professor and pursued an academic schedule which, after a change of heart, led her just short of completing a Doctor of Business Administration degree. She began her career in acting on stage in South Florida as a result of a chance listening encounter with a local developer, Peter Giuliano, who heard her solo CD playing in a West Palm Beach record store. Giuliano had written a rock opera called The Pimp and the Prostitute and contacted her to play the lead role of Sondra, a madame. Things then started to fall into place and it was full speed ahead with pursuing her true passion in life.
