Quotes

“It took living alone for me to really get to know myself.”

“I’ve always struggled with having frizzy hair, and it doesn’t cooperate the way I want it to.”

“I think from going to fittings once a week and having to look in the mirror for two hours, I feel like I built a intuition for what’s gonna work and what isn’t, and I noticed how important tailoring is, especially being a more petite body type.”

“I’m not more Brazilian than I am American or vice-versa – I’m very much a combination of all of those things.”

“I connect with my culture through my family. I speak Portuguese to my parents so that I can practice. I stay engaged with my extended family through a lively group chat on WhatsApp. That sense of community and family is the heart of Brazilian culture, and staying engaged with my family is what keeps me connected.”

“I often hear things like, ‘You don’t look Latina enough,’ and that mentality is so backwards. The fact is, I am Latina, so how are you going to tell me that I don’t look Latina?”

“I use my hair as a tool for portraying characters. When I’m auditioning for a role, when I’m putting myself on tape for something, I always consider what the hairstyle is going to be because it changes the way people perceive me.”

“It’s fine to eat dessert when I want to eat dessert because that will give me the peace of mind I need. I’ll know that if I ate chocolate cake, maybe I won’t the next day.”

“I love bossa nova. It’s the most beautiful genre of music in the world.”

“I grew up watching ‘Gossip Girl’ and ‘The O.C.,’ and I looked up to Blair Waldorf and Summer Roberts.”
