Raymond Abel is a bilingual performer based in Los Angeles – born and raised in South Texas, a true Tejano at heart. His works cultivate a truly unique experience as he blends his witty charisma with the flavors of Tex-Mex/Tejano culture (note: It’s more than just food people! But the food is so good!).
His professional career began performing on the American stage at the age of 13. By 17, Raymond Abel would expand his career in both improv and sketch landing professional gigs.
Whether it’s on screen or on stage, his goal is simple: to bring more humorous Latinx content to mainstream entertainment. He aspires to have a career path much like his childhood idols: John Leguizamo, Carol Burnett, Martin Short, Whoopi Goldberg, and Robin Williams.
Highly-motivated actor possessing a craft for compelling performances both on stage and in film.
