    "Anything is possible.
    We never know where life may take us....
    So why stop now?"

    My name is Alexa Young

    I enjoy being an experienced, versatile actor who brings authenticity, adaptability and a genuine love for storytelling to every project. I have acquired my BFA in Theatre Arts from Texas State University and years of professional experience across film, television, commercial, independent, and voice-over work.

    I feel proud of the foundation I have built, that allows me to step confidently into a wide range of roles and environments.

    I’m proud of my multicultural background; half Dominican, one-quarter Puerto Rican, and one-quarter Irish. My upbringing as an Army Brat gave me a very early understanding & respect of different cultures, perspectives, and ways of life. That experience shaped me into someone who is resilient, open-minded, observant, and able to connect with all kinds of people. Which has been easy for me to translate these qualities to naturally bring into my work as an actor.

    My training began on stage and expanded into on-camera performance, including scene study, audition technique, improvisation, characterization, and stage combat. I’ve had the opportunity to train with respected coaches in the Texas area, including Glenn Morshower and Mona Lee-Fultz, while continuing to develop my craft both on and off set.

    I have been fortunate to be cast as lead and supporting roles on indie short films with some phenomenally talented Directors in Texas. I have also worked on several highly well-known tv shows and movies, like Spy Kids, Panic!, Walker, Mo, and Fear the Walking Dead, as well as numerous independent short films and commercial projects.

    At the heart of my work is connection. I love discovering what makes a character connect to my own humanity; bringing my own energy, emotional honesty, and perspective to their story. I’m an “add water and stir” actor. I am adaptable, prepared, collaborative, and ready to step into whatever the project needs.

     

    Based in Austin, TX and available for work and travel nationwide.

    I’m always ready for the next story, the next character, and the next challenge!
