A Guide For the New and Returning Characters in "Grey's Anatomy" Season 19

Floyd is also part of the new "class" of residents, playing Simone Griffin. Deadline notes that her character's backstory is especially intriguing: "A funny, whip-smart, high achiever with a complicated family dynamic. She grew up in Seattle, but never wanted to work at Grey Sloan because of a painful personal history with the hospital."

Floyd is already part of the Shondaland family, having played "Neff" (a fictionalized version of Neffatari Davis, a concierge at NYC hotel 11 Howard) in "Inventing Anna." She also appeared on "The Bold Type" as Tia Clayton.
