BioDescription:
I'm a five foot tall redhead who is often told that she looks like Chelsea Clinton. I'm not sure if it's a compliment or not, but since I prefer to be optimistic, I'll take it as one. My parents are Puerto Rican but I was raised in Santa Fe. I'm kind of a chameleon in that I can assimilate into many groups, but don't really belong in any one. I am the only child of a physisist and a physician, and yet I turn to the arts. Go figure. I have the physisists' trait of being able to shut out the rest of the world when concentrating on somthing and the ability to live in my own little world for extended periods of time. I can be a very stubborn person when I want to be. I'm idealistic, though, and generally trusting. I am a dreamer . . . who tends to force my dreams out every so often because another side of me is a realist. I am almost brutally honest, but I am very caring of people feelings. Balancing the two sides is tricky. I don't like to be out of control over anything, and I hate being told what to do. Get me in a group and I let others lead as long as I can still be independent. Unless I'm in the theater. Then I do take charge, because I'm comfortable and it needs to get done.
Goals:
I apperantly knew that I wanted to be involved in the arts when I was very young. I watched a home video of me when I was 4 or 5 saying that I wanted to be an artist when I grew up. Funny how life turns out. My true love was singing, but I couldn't deal with the lifestyle. As a budding soprano I was already too hard on myself. Being with others who are much better than me and who are better trained than i am would have killed my spirit. Now I can't hit the notes I once did. *sigh* During a few moments in my life I have tried to separate myself from the stage. As of now, I'm still not performing. I sing only for myself. I spent my first year at Northwestern saying that I would only be doing theater as a hobby. It took over my life again as it always does, and I caved in. I went into the backstage world, and I can't escape it anymore. Theater is my life, and yes, it's a masochistic life. Yay.
