My name is Toni Buena and I'm a Chicago-based, Filipino, screen actor represented by Babes' N Beaus. I'm currently taking On-camera classes at the Green Room and part of the not-so secret group 'The Practice' to play and explore my craft. I'm also a member of StageMilk Drama Club and have tons of resources and training at my fingertips. In addition to those groups, I'm constantly training my instrument with Jo Kelly to deliver truthful and authentic performances. 

I love to learn because knowledge is power. Anyone who knows me - knows I'm an avid learner, whether that'd be learning a new skill such as filmmaking, boring a new door knob hole or tackling a more esoteric subject such as energy and astrology. More importantly I love to experience life in general because as an actor we should absorb as many things as much as we can so that we can grow as human beings but also understand how these circumstances affect us. Therefore allowing us to take those encounters back to our craft and just 'be'. I know this is cliché but this is how I live it........ life is a gift, the good, the bad and even the ugly - I want to feel all of it - my craft allows me to do just that.
