I Was Brought Up The Mexican Way,

I Always Laugh A Lot When I See The Dramas That I End Up Doing. I See Myself Behaving Very Seriously And I'm Like, 'what Is This?'

Bringing A Baby Into The World Is Not Like Grilling Enchiladas. It's A Difficult Thing.

I Love Rehearsals And I Love Creating A Character, Sticking With It Until You Have Something To Tell. It's Always Different Though. Sometimes A Director Will Tell You From Day One What They Want. Then You Throw In Your Idea.

I Think Since I Was In Drama School, I Wanted To Direct In The Theatre. When You Are An Actor, You Just Have To Open Your Eyes And You Start To Learn A Lot About How To Survive On Set And What's Important And How To Tell A Story. Directing Is Really About Putting Yourself Out There, To Be Slapped In A Way. You Know That In The Kitchen, You're Gonna Get Burned. It's Very Scary But Very Exciting As Well. If You Have Something To Say, You Have Nothing To Lose And You Probably Learn From The Experience.

Shamefully, Mexico Isn't A Country That Provides Opportunities Equally And Democratically To Everyone. Although There Is A Myth As Well About That, Because If You Have Something To Tell, You Will Find A Way To Do It. You Might Get Frustrated Doing It But Hey, That's The Country We Live In. I Want The Chance To Live And Experience The Country That I Come From. I Keep Struggling And Fighting Against These Very Seductive Offers That Require That I Live Somewhere Else. It Is A Shame That It Has To Be Like That. But You Are Young. If You Don't Have A Family Then There's No Excuse. Try, At Least.
