I really am happy that I met my agency and my management company, because they see me as a person and not just a Latin woman.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Being Latina for me is also being a strong woman.
The women I love most are Latina - my sister, mother, and daughter. They're spontaneous but spend a majority of their time trying to make others happy.
There's a spirit of Latina women in all of my work, in the love of the body and the strong sense of self.
I owe my career to Latina women. I was surrounded by the amazing group: my mother, my aunts, my extended family. They didn't necessarily have access to high fashion, but they had great style and looked stunning naturally at every age.
Being Latina, I'm super close with my family. I love them, and I love spending time with them. I love being at my grandma's house and eating her food.
I'm extremely proud of being Latin; it's a big part of my life. It's not something I outwardly promote, just like I don't outwardly promote that I have green eyes and blonde hair. It's a part of who I am. I love the richness of the culture I grew up within.
I'm so proud to be a Latina. Growing up and being Latina and growing up with my father and getting to do a lot of the Hispanic traditions, I loved it.
Listen, the Latin people, I love the Latin people. They are so loyal to you. Even if you haven't been on TV for thirty years, they still love you. And they cherish you and give you respect. You're not fast food in the Latin market.
I want to steer away from the stereotypes that Latina women are categorized in. I feel like there are so many more opportunities for us. I like going out for those roles that says 'open ethnicity.'
I love 'Latina'! You guys have always been so supportive of me and my career. Now I have my family, and it's just awesome.
