About Us
Cay Studios is about access.
Access to knowledge.
Access to opportunity.
Access to people.
We exist to support creatives at every stage — helping them grow, get discovered, and build sustainable careers — while creating a trusted talent ecosystem for businesses.
Why It Exists
Too many creatives are talented but unsupported.
Too many businesses struggle to find reliable creative talent.
Cay Studios was founded in 2021 by Cayla Turner out of necessity.
As a teenager — and even after graduating high school and college — I knew I was creative and driven, but I didn’t always know where to go next. Opportunities felt scattered. Information felt gatekept. And a lot of the learning happened the hard way, by figuring things out alone.
So I started building what I wish I had access to back then.
What began as a way to obtain my own freelance gigs grew into something bigger: a creative platform that provides resources, education, visibility, and real opportunities — all in one place.
Cay Studios exists to help creatives move with more clarity, support, and confidence — using everything I learned (and built) along the way to help pave the path forward for others.

Our approach
We don’t believe in gatekeeping or “figure it out on your own” culture.
Cay Studios combines education, visibility, and real-world experience — so creatives aren’t just seen, but prepared.
