Natalia's early life was marked by her upbringing in Northern California, where she was born and raised alongside her four older brothers. Growing up, she developed a passion for imitation, mimicking every role she saw on television and film, a habit that continues to this day.
As a child, Natalia was an active participant in her elementary school plays and talent shows, taking on various roles, including a Snow Flake in the Nutcracker and a Munchkin in the Wizard of Oz. However, her energetic and adventurous spirit often got her into trouble, resulting in numerous detentions, suspensions, and even close calls with expulsion.
In high school, Natalia's focus shifted from the performing arts to sports, as she joined her school's swimming and water polo teams. Despite her dedication to these activities, she never lost her love for acting and was determined to pursue her passion.
After high school, Natalia's family encouraged her to excel in college, but she refused to listen and instead began submitting herself to casting projects in San Francisco. Her big break came in May 2012, when she landed a role in a Sony PlayStation project, but just one day before filming was set to begin, she suffered a severe ankle injury, breaking two bones, and was forced to miss the opportunity.
Devastated by the setback, Natalia was determined to recover quickly and threw herself into rehabilitation, pushing her body to heal faster than expected. Her hard work paid off, and she soon landed a lead role in her first indie film, Bar America.
The experience was short-lived, as she was soon called in to play air hockey with Owen Wilson on the set of the feature film, The Internship. In 2013, Natalia made the bold decision to relocate to Los Angeles, where she continues to pursue her passion for acting and filmmaking.
In her free time, Natalia enjoys writing and working on her own film projects, a testament to her creative spirit and dedication to her craft.
