Neraida Bega's early life was marked by a complex tapestry of cultural influences, as she was born and raised in Albania to a mother who held the esteemed position of chief doctor at a hospital, and a father who worked as a private company construction engineer. This unique upbringing would later shape her multifaceted personality and artistic pursuits.
As a young girl, Neraida's life was forever changed when she, her father, and older sister Eneida were forced to flee their homeland due to the Kosovo War. This traumatic event left her mother behind, tasked with the responsibility of caring for Neraida's grandparents. The family's relocation to Italy proved to be a pivotal moment in Neraida's life, as she discovered a passion for the performing arts, including theater, belly dancing, and music. She also developed a skill for playing the piano and violin, and trained in the martial art of Muay-Thai for seven years.
As she grew older, Neraida's interests shifted towards a more practical pursuit, and she enrolled in a program to become a Dental Technician. However, her artistic inclinations never truly dissipated, and she eventually relocated to the United States to pursue a career in acting.
Upon signing with Wilhelmina Models, Neraida's big break arrived in the form of acting and stunt roles in the popular video game Borderlands 3, as well as the film Dog, starring Channing Tatum, and the critically acclaimed Marvel series WandaVision. Her heritage, which is a blend of Greek, Turkish, and Albanian, has undoubtedly played a significant role in shaping her artistic perspective and sense of identity.
Notably, Neraida is fluent in four languages: Albanian, Italian, Spanish, and English, which she learned as her fourth language upon arriving in the United States. This remarkable linguistic ability has undoubtedly enriched her acting experiences and allowed her to connect with a diverse range of characters and cultures.
