About Taya

Hi, my name is Taya! I'm an 14 yr old, Grade 8 student from Winnipeg, Manitoba who loves to act. I was cast as a supporting lead as Lily in the film Euphoria directed by Paula Kelly and proudly earned my full ACTRA membership. I have been acting for 5 yrs and had the opportunity to be involved in some great projects both as an actor and background so I can gain more experience on set. I recently went to Hollywood both in January and March for training in LA and in Santa Monica. I have been a voice actor for 5 yrs and have completed 37 radio commercials for both ASTRAL media and CHUM Radio and their clients in Winnipeg. I am very articulate, expressive and confident in front of a crew and cameras. If you require an enthusiastic, energetic, well spoken child who takes direction with ease please consider me to audition for your project. Along with acting, my other favorite things to do are to play fastball, hockey, volleyball, read books and play with my dog Harley.
