About me
I am a Spanish actress currently based in UK, bilingual in Spanish / English.Two years ago my ambition on progressing on my acting career lead me to move to the UK where I recently graduated with a Distinction grade in the MA Drama from the University of South Wales (Cardiff). Here in the UK, I have also trained with the Spanish Theatre Company (Cervantes Theatre, London) but my background in the industry goes back many years ago.
Back in Spain, I started acting when I was 15 years old, with the company Juan Del Enzina (Zamora) and touring nationally with the theatre company Miguelillo. I was able to manage my acting career while continuing my studies, graduating with a University Degree in Audiovisual Communication (Cinema, TV and Radio) and a MA in Fictional Scriptwriting for TV and Films, both on the Pontifical University of Salamanca.
Acting experience:
Some of my UK credits include; The Cherry Orchard with the company Everyman Theatre (Cardiff), Helena’s Trial the one-woman show I presented as a final project for my MA and CLUE with Red Herring Theatre (Cardiff), now postponed because of the Covid-19 situation. Other future projects that are for now on hold are, A Midsummer Night’sDream (York), with the company Jorvik Theatre, or my debut as a director on Blood Wedding with the company Everyman Theatre (Cardiff).
I am also a content creator in the BBC online platform BBC Sesh, where I am able to write, direct and perform my own sketches or entertainment videos.
