Being an actress wasn't realistic. I knew that I was going to have to do it in a way that would speak to my parents. So I went to NYU Tisch School of the Arts for theater, and I studied at the conservatory.
I've learned a lot about what kind of actor I want or do not want to be while being on set. I sit back and observe how other actors treat the totem pole of set politics.
This industry is all about work, and just because Sundance exposed me to the world, it is my job to stay deserving in that world. The work never ends; the hustle just get harder, and you get stronger!
I'm not messing with skiing. You can't get this Puerto Rican on the slope. Uh-uh.
'Filly Brown' gave me the wings to fly, but red carpets are still very uncomfortable.
I like to peel it and share it with friends. You can spread the love with an orange.
