On working as a Latina actress in “From Selena to Undone, Constance Marie has been the matriarch of many an American Family” in the AV Club (2019 Oct 16)

So I am often literally representing us Latinos…But it was more important to just do quality work, not so much just as a Latin actress, but as an actress. There’s pressure just in that. It’s so funny, my mom always said to me, “Life is pressure. You’ve just got to deal with it.”
