->''"I'm not the type of actress who sits there to wait for the phone call, I love the creating process and I need to keep myself busy, so I studied script writing, first to know how to choose my projects but most importantly because writing had always been a big passion in my life. So when I'm not acting, for sure I'm writing a script."''

!!This actress provides examples of:

* BillingDisplacement: In Latin America she appears in most of the posters and publicity used in that region for ''Series/AlteredCarbon'', especially in her native Mexico, over the main protagonist Takeshi Kovacs. This could be somewhat justified, as science fiction is considered a niche genre in that region.
* MsFanservice: She's gorgeous and her characters tend to reflect it.
* RavenHairIvorySkin: She has dark hair and light skin.
* SpicyLatina: Part of her appeal, especially in her roles in American media.
* StarMakingRole: Her first major role in ''Film/AmarTeDuele'' made her famous in Mexico.
* RomanceOnTheSet: A short one with Creator/KeanuReeves in ''Film/StreetKings''.
