Biography
Elle grandit à Guadalajara. À l'âge de 15 ans, elle s'intéresse à la comédie et entre dans une troupe de théâtre pendant ses études. Elle étudie le métier d'acteur à l'Université nationale de Mexico où ses professeurs sont Luis de Tavira, Jose Caballero et Ludvik Margules. Pendant sa dernière année universitaire, elle obtient le rôle de Tita dans Les Épices de la passion d'Alfonso Arau, film qui lui apportera le prix de la meilleure actrice au Festival international du film de Tōkyō. Cela la conduit à abandonner un peu le théâtre au profit d'une carrière au cinéma, notamment dans des films indépendants américains tels que Bottle Rocket de Wes Anderson ou Sugar Town de Allison Anders. Par la suite, elle reprend sa carrière d'actrice dramatique à Mexico.Usually with
