hey there, I'm Shayna benardo.
I was born and raised in Jupiter, Florida (yes, it's a real place), to two concert caterers. I began my career in high school, when I started auditioning for commercials in Miami, with guidance from casting legend, Lori Wyman, C.S.A. (Bloodline, Miami Vice, Iron Man 3, etc.).
Moving to Orlando to further my career, I began studying Meisner-based technique and scene-work consistently for 4 years while my career started to take flight.
Now based in Atlanta, I'm so excited for what's to come.
I love stories, and I believe in the transformative power of film and television for both its creators, and its audience. Amplifying voices and stories that need to be heard is why I'm here.
I would love to help tell yours.
Let's see what we can make possible together.
