Born outside of New York City, Kaypri began acting in sixth grade and wrote her first play in the seventh. After high school she received her BFA in Drama from Howard University. In her undergrad years, she conceived her solo coming-of-age play, Babygirl.
Babygirl, the coming of age sitcom/drama of a media-codependa-lova-holic, takes her audience through the first loves and losses of childhood, the peer pressures of adolescence, the great expectations of campus life, and finally to the realization that though pop culture might always be our first love, "Sometimes we have to push the off button to find ourselves."
Kaypri has performed Babygirl nationwide under her Priscilla Belle Productions banner, and finished her late mother's civil rights autobiography. In addition, she received a filmmaking award from the AARP for writing and producing the caregiving PSA "The Baton". The film was also featured on the AARP Website which led to an article in the Wall Street Journal titled, "The Unfinished Business of Alzheimer's".
Babygirl's sequel, her solo play, The Good Daughter and The Do Gooder, explores her caregiver journey and is a New Humanitas New Voices finalist. The play premiered onstage in 2017 to rave reviews with audiences calling it a love letter to caregivers everywhere. It was last performed on Mother's Day 2018 and is being adapted for the screen.
Kaypri has appeared in numerous independent projects as an actor. Her TV adaptation of Babygirl has been a Stowe and Sundance Labs finalist and in 2023 became a Script Labs quarterfinalist chosen out of over 11,700 scripts. Kaypri won a screenwriting award for her short film script Everything, and is currently a writer on Sonhara Eastman's series, SAHM.
She is a proud member of the WGA.
