Seeing a need for Latinas in the industry to have a community of empowerment, Diana joined forces with actor Lisa Vidal and the two nurtured and grew Latinas Acting Up into a meaningful platform, offering industry Latinas support, mentorship, resources, and community, all while striving to raise the visibility of Latinas within the industry. | Posted on 12/May/2024 01:36:25
