I'm a passionate and outgoing creative originally from Chihuahua Mexico who's family moved to the States for a better life with more fulfilling opportunities. I can say I've tried everything once, from being in a dance company as a kid to being the only girl in an audio visual company as a teenager. I'm interested in live performing arts and all it's aspects from creation to all the moving parts and the performing on stage. I have an optimistic view and believe everything that's exciting is just outside of the comfort zone. I like vanilla creamer in my coffee and think guinea pigs are the best pets.
