I love what I do. When a month goes by and I'm not working, I'm miserable.

I thought it would be easy. I thought it'd take me one year to be Salma Hayek.

I stay healthy through eating well, working out - simply living a healthy lifestyle.

I was ballet dancing at four, playing piano by six, and doing commercials by 12. When I was 21, I was on the number one live comedy show in Puerto Rico. I told my parents, 'I'm going to New York to become a performer.' And I left.

I've been blessed because every single role I've done has been an educated person. I've never done the stereotypical Latina, even though I have an accent - I've always been able to play educated people. That's a good thing!

My greatest obstacle has to be accepting that the business that I chose to be part of is based on rejection and constantly trying to prove yourself. Letting go of seeing my accent and the way I speak as a limitation. Accepting it as who I am and where I came from.

Go learn the language. Go take some acting lessons. Start from zero like everybody else.
