I'm living in a dream. I really consider myself really lucky. I was born and raised in Guatemala, in a village, where to go to the market you have to take two buses or drive about 20 minutes if you are lucky enough to have a car. I grew up very, very poor and I didn't even know that being an actor could be a career.
Everything Will Ferrell says during scenes is so funny and so natural. I was amazed at his genius.
When I think about the fact that I get to work with stars like Will Ferrell or Kurt Russell my eyes fill with tears of joy and appreciation. I hope the ride keeps going.
I consider myself a good improviser but Will and Kevin showed me I have a lot to learn.
I don't think I can be intimidated about working with any comedic actors. It felt great to get to play hardball with the big boys as they say.
I've never considered myself to be naturally funny and it wasn't until I booked my first few jobs in Hollywood that I started thinking, "I guess I'm funny."
Working in comedies is not something I set out to do. But, I love it. I've taken some improv classes here and there, but I don't consider myself a comedian by any means.
