Neyla Cantu

Hey There! My name is Neyla and have 10+ years of behind and in front of the camera work experience. Started off doing commercials, producing, and floor directing for a CBS affiliate in Houston. Then discovered my passion for acting at The Carol Hickey Acting Studio in Austin, TX.

There, I've embarked on the amazing journey that is bringing stories to life. Using our imaginations to really place ourselves in the story and have a human experience through the words on the paper. No dramatization, no schmacting, just those REAL human moments that bring your best self out.
