Biography

She was born in the vibrant city of Mexico, where her journey as a performer would soon begin. At the tender age of 19, she made the bold decision to leave the classical ballet world behind and instead, pursue a career in theater under the guidance of the renowned director Ludwik Margules.

Her first foray into the world of theater was in the production of "Sexual Perversity in Chicago," a critically acclaimed play written by the celebrated playwright David Mamet. This marked the beginning of her illustrious career on stage, which would soon be followed by her debut in the film industry.

Her cinematic debut was in the 2001 film "Written in the Body of the Night," directed by the esteemed Mexican filmmaker Jaime Humberto Hermosillo. She took on the lead role of Adela H, a character that would showcase her remarkable talent and versatility as an actress.

As her career continued to flourish, she made her mark in American films with a lead role in the 2004 production "Puerto Vallarta Squeeze." Alongside Hollywood heavyweights Harvey Keitel and Scott Glenn, she brought her unique energy and charisma to the screen, cementing her status as a talented and in-demand actress.
