Tiera Skovbye stars as Grace Knight in NBC's new series "Nurses." Grace is a young nurse looking for a fresh start until someone from her past turns up who could jeopardize her career.

With an impressive body of work that encompasses film and television, Skovbye stars on the CW tentpole series "Riverdale" as Polly.  She played young Betty Broderick on the hit USA/Netflix true crime series "Dirty John," as well as Robin, the grown-up daughter of Zelena and Robin Hood, on the ABC series "Once Upon a Time." She has delivered memorable performances on "Arrow," "Supernatural" and "Dead of Summer," as well as in Lifetime's "The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story," playing Elizabeth Berkley.

A native of Vancouver, Skovbye comes from a Scandinavian background with most of her extended family residing in Sweden and Denmark. She began her acting career at age 7 when she was discovered by an agent at the Children's Festival in Vancouver and started modeling at 13, which gave her the opportunity to work and travel all over the world. 

Skovbye splits her time between Los Angeles and Vancouver.
