About me

View profile
Luis Alves is a Cape Verdean-Dutch actor based between Los Angeles and Amsterdam, with roots that stretch from the island of Praia in Cape Verde to Europe and beyond. Born in Cape Verde, Luis moved with his family to the Netherlands at a young age, where new opportunities awaited him. It was in Rotterdam that he discovered his passion for performance and received classical training in theater.

Eager to grow as an artist, Luis later expanded his career to the United States, continuing to develop his craft on stage and on screen.

Alongside acting, Luis is an accomplished voice-over artist whose work spans the globe. From commercials and educational programs to promos and instructional videos, his voice has brought life to projects across television and radio.

Fluent in Cape Verdean Creole, Dutch, and English, Luis carries a rich multicultural perspective into every role he takes on—an artist shaped by many worlds, always ready to share stories that resonate across borders.
