Mario Davila Quijano
Born in Costa Rica and raised in Miami, Mario is 100% fluent in English and Spanish. He developed the acting bug at an early age, performing as every character in Disney movies for his family and friends. One day, outside his 4th grade class, a friend of his said, "You should be an actor!" That's all it took - Mario has been working on his acting career ever since!
He began studying and practicing his craft in junior high and high school, eventually competing at the local, regional and state levels, earning him accolades along the way. He went on to train at the university level majoring in theatre and then back to school to learn more about the industry he longed to be a part of. He eventually graduated Valedictorian from Full Sail University. As a student, Mario’s passions evolved as he explored film production in order to broaden his understanding of acting and the movie making process. As a result, in 2010 Mario founded Bone Money Entertainment, a full service film, video, and photography company based in Miami, FL. During that time Mario never stopped pursuing his passion. He has made a very lucrative career out of working as an Assistant Property Master as well as a Property Master on some of the largest features and television projects - feel free to check his IMDB.
Although he loves working behind the scenes, Mario's true passion is in front of the camera. His talent has led him to work on various stages as well as projects ranging from independent films and various episodes of scripted television series, to national commercial spots for Walmart and Univision.
Currently residing in Los Angeles with a home base in Atlanta, Mario is bicoastal and developing new and exciting projects. Stay tuned for more updates!
