Shakespeare was definitely an actor, and it seems likely that he was an actor before he started writing plays. Although the plays show an understanding of the practical side of drama (something you are not likely to pick up unless you are an actor), some of the early plays are very clumsy and awkward in spots. That's what makes us think they were early. However, it also suggests that Shakespeare had not been an actor long when he wrote them.

No one "chooses" such a profession, it chooses them. We can only speculate on what induced Shakespeare to start writing. Perhaps he started as an actor and thought that writing plays would be a lucrative and useful sideline.
