We had the good fortune of connecting with Xavier E.F. NEALY and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Xavier E.F., can you tell us more about your background and the role it’s played in shaping who you are today?
I’m from Houston Texas , Born in the neighborhood of 3rd ward . My upbringing impacted me deeply . Where I’m from is the reason who i am today . It’s the reason why I’m so confident yet cautious with my myself . And i feel like me being from there made me a mentally strong person to not be what i saw .

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
Acting is the ability to display art with expressions ,emotions , and more. I’m mostly proud of what I’ve accomplished in such a short year . I gained representation, I’ve done 4 projects , and created wonderful relationships with new creatives. I got here by joining classes , submitting to events that got me around a lot of people who are similar to me , and me also reaching out. It most definitely not easy the only i could do and anyone is to just keep going , that’s a life lesson for anyone in any career field . I want the world to know I’m not here to be just the average creative , i want people to know I’m here to be the best and inspire people to be better than me and do so at a high level

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I would take my friends downtown Dallas to go see the art museum to take Pictures, Also i like to have adventures so i would like to take them to the escape room , go kart racing , and outside theaters to catch a relaxing vibe . Theirs numerous things to do in Texas !

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I want to shoutout my support system . Everyone should know when your chasing a dream it’s makes it hard when you don’t have support there. My family has been supportive since day 1 of my acting journey . Without i wouldn’t say i wouldn’t be able to do this but they’re are making it a smooth sail.
