My motto in life has always been, “Think about what you would do if you won the lottery.” Immediately afterward, I would embark on whatever I had decided, without fear.

That's how I ended up studying at Uta Hagen's HB Studio in New York, after it was recommended to me by John Strasberg, Lee Strasberg's son, with whom I had the privilege of learning. That's how I ended up traveling the world alone, backpacking for 14 months. And that's how I dared to present my documentary project to Discovery Channel about shamans and healers in Latin America, traveling for four months in search of masters and testing medicinal plants. I am an adventurer who likes to take risks. A free spirit who feels even freer when immersed in a life that isn't her own, acting.
