I was always involved in the arts from a young age. I started studying classical piano at age four as a student of the Associated Board of the Royal School of Music.

Sometimes, growing up, I tried to be very Latina; I would change my voice... experiment with my hair a lot, trying to figure out who I was in a primarily white school.

The love, support, and respect the members of the theater community have for one another is unparalleled. Say what you want about us wacky drama-types, but one thing that makes our business special is our loyalty, our fierce commitment to one another, and our mutual respect.

Lying is not only a defense mechanism; it's also a coping mechanism and a survival technique.

Race, to me, is a very blurry thing.

I read that a lot of people think Im gay. I dont care. My boyfriend and I are not really phased by what people say.
