I'm not trying to represent the whole Latino community. There are too many different cultures, and Latinos will always say, 'My family doesn't do that.'

There aren't any concrete steps to becoming a comic.

It might sound dramatic and a little grandiose, but as a Latina, I would like to be someone that gives a voice to my culture.

When you have a different name, people just kind of take the liberty to spell it how they want.

As a kid, I really wanted to have my own show. But when you grow up in poverty, people tell you nothing is possible. So I kind of gave up on that dream.

I always knew, even as a kid, that my mom had a really rough life, and I always wanted to make her feel happy and to make her feel good.
