Skyler Day was born and raised in the vibrant city of Atlanta, Georgia, where her journey in the entertainment industry began with a serendipitous encounter with a talent agent at the DMV when she was just six years old. This chance meeting marked the start of her illustrious career, which would eventually span multiple mediums, including print work, commercials, voice overs, and film.
At the tender age of ten, Skyler made a bold promise to her parents, vowing to book the lead in a film by the time she turned eleven. Although she missed her deadline by just two weeks, her determination paid off when she landed the lead role in "The Adventures of Ociee Nash." This milestone achievement marked a turning point in her life, as she and her family relocated to California in 2004 to pursue her acting career more seriously.
Music has always played a significant role in Skyler's life, with her discovering her passion for storytelling and songwriting at an early age. She began writing her own songs at the age of ten and picked up the guitar two years later. With multiple releases under her belt, including her latest single "Sleepwalking," she is rapidly making a name for herself in the music industry.
Skyler's musical talents caught the attention of country music superstar Kacey Musgraves, who personally selected her as a mentee after submitting her music to a contest held by BumbleBizz. As part of the mentorship program, Skyler will have the opportunity to perform at one of the top music festivals in 2020, further solidifying her position as a rising star in the music world.
In addition to her work in film and music, Skyler has also made a name for herself in television, with recurring roles on shows such as NBC's Parenthood and Law & Order: SVU, the Freeform drama Pretty Little Liars, and MTV's Sweet/Vicious. Her impressive guest-starring credits include appearances on Hawaii Five-O, iZombie, and Grey's Anatomy, among others. Today, she can be seen recurring on the Fox drama series, The Resident.
