Additional info: I was born on September 17th. My family was originally from
Madrid, Spain, but I grew up in Morelia and Guadalajara,
Mexico.
I was like every little girl. I loved to dance, do gymnastics
and play with fashion dolls. I loved to be the object of
attention in front of my father's camera. I am the youngest
of twelve children and as you can imagine I was "spoiled
rotten" by my parents. =)~ Even though I was one of eight
girls, I spent most of time with my brothers. Therefore, I
became a tomboy. I learned martial arts, hunting and the art
of tree climbing. It was an enjoyable time!
I moved to the United States when I was fifteen. I began to
learn English while I attended high school in Utah. I was a
member of the school's dance company and enjoyed traveling
with the group. Those were some of the most memorable times
during my high school days. I then attended Brigham Young
University under an Air Force ROTC scholarship. The
camaraderie, the discipline, the challenge of ROTC made my
time worthwhile and exciting.
Since I have always been a social butterfly, I decided to get
into a career that would fit my personality. I found that my
passion was to get involve in the fashion industry. After
moving to Monterey, CA, I managed a Jones New York store and
that's how everything started.
Soon afterwards, I became a fashion show coordinator for
several non-profit organizations in the community. I had
incredible experiences working with well know designers in
the industry. Then one day, Victoria's Secret found me. That
is the beginning of a career at Vicky's. I managed ten stores
with Victoria's Secret in different cities. I loved working
with them and most of all, I love the people I worked with.
My team became a big part of my life and my best friends. A
few years later I moved to Ann Taylor and had a blast! Within
time, I found myself having to upgrade from a closet to a
walk in closet. LOL!!! Completely out of control =)~ Around
New Year's Day 2001, I got a call from a movie producer I had
met. He made me realize that this was "my time". I decided to
give it a shot! Since then I've been traveling to Los Angeles
frequently for modeling and acting assignments. Finally......
I get to launch my own website. I'd like to welcome you to my
Internet world!! Here you can learn all about NISSA. I hope
you love my site and return again and again! Special thanks
to: all my friends, family and photographers for their
incredible support, especially to my sweetheart. He is the
greatest reason for all my success. |
