Tell us about you! What is your story? Married, kids, fur babies? What things do you do besides your craft? I'm a full-time singer and actor at Walt Disney World Resort and Universal. In my spare time, I run obstacle course races and watch a ton of movies. I enjoy coloring, traveling, and walking everywhere barefoot, if I can.
What has been the hardest part of being a model? How long have you been a model? The hardest part is posing. I'm very new to it all, so I'm learning as I go. I've started modeling over the past month.
What makes your passion shine and what are you most passionate about when you see your finished work? Collaborating with other creative minds to make something awesome!
Would you change anything that you have learned? What kind of legacy do you want to leave behind with your work? I want to leave a legacy of representation. Hopefully, someone who looks like me, can see themselves and believe they are beautiful.
Among your works, which your favorite & why? I'm inspired by Gina Rodriguez the most (Jane the Virgin). She's a great person, as well as actress and model. Improving my skills and getting better at modeling is rewarding.
MODELS... Modeling is a competitive field. What makes you stand out from the others? Expressive face. A background in acting. Willingness to be silly.
MODELS... What is your greatest strength? What do you need to improve on? What are your goals? Greatest Strength: eyes and hair. I need to improve on posing better. Goals are to be better at posing.
Tell us something we wouldn't know about you, from looking at your portfolio. That I even model in the first place (I'm an actress).
What advice do you have for people just starting out? Just do it! You'll learn as you go.
What is one accomplishment you achieved this year? Gaining full-time status at Disney as a singer and actor. A longtime goal of mine!
Thank you, Cristina, for sharing your creative journey with us! We love having you as part of the Artistic Alliance Community!
