Naureen Zaim was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. She went to the University of Illinois and obtained two Bachelors in Fine Art-Painting and Sculpture. After graduating, she moved to LA to pursue her art career. While living in an 1,800 square foot artist loft next to skid row she cranked out paintings while also pursuing her life long goal of modeling. She often uses nudes of herself in her artwork and has always been inspired by the textures and poses used in creative fashion and beauty ads. While supporting herself with modeling she also started to get the "acting bug" and decided to give that a shot. Naureen now acts and models while still creating artwork.

Currently she will be filming a movie called Beautiful People where she will be playing a high school cheerleader, who has a dramatic and cataclysmic demise. She is the face of a major Anheiser Busch beer campaign, has a movie in post production called, "I Am Bad"... in which she kills two people with her bare hands! Hahaha.

She is also producing an animated feature film, and publishing a children's book series she illustrated and co wrote.
