Alejandro Oliva González is a Mexican actor, was born on July 19, 1992 in Ciudad Victoria, Tamaulipas, México, to Dr. Roberto Jaime Oliva Cruz and María de Lourdes González Navarro. He studied almost all of his young life at a Catholic School but decided to do his last two years at a more English speaking centered school. Alejandro is the first one of his family to be involved with the arts.Alejandro's parents encouraged him to study Medicine just like his dad. When he was 18 years old Alejandro moved to Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico, where he studied Medicine for a brief amount of time and reaffirmed to his family that Acting was what he wanted. As a way to test if acting was the correct path for Alejandro, his parents enrolled him at the age of 19 in a vocational institute located in Mexico City called "Bussola" where he had a Cinematography class and it was taught by Academy Award winning director Alejandro González Iñárritu. When his process at "Bussola" was complete they told Alejandro and his parents that Acting was the best path for him to follow. Thanks to advice from Alejandro González Iñárritu and other tutors from the Academy Alejandro decided to stay and properly study Acting in his country at the renowned Acting School of the television and film production company Argos Comunicación, "CasAzul", when he was 20. In 2018 he decided to audition for a Masters in one of the oldest and most prestigious Acting Schools in the world, London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA) were he got offered a place and was the only Non-Native English speaker of his class, he graduated as a Master of Arts in Classical Acting for the Professional Theatre.
