Born and raised in Seattle, Washington, “Cruz” has been a triple threat in the entertainment industry by having experience of performing as a Singer, Actress and a Model. As a young girl she would play endlessly her mother’s classic albums, with the dream of being on stages and performing in front of live audiences. She continued to feed her passion for singing by following the examples of past influences like Selena & Mary J. Blige. “Cruz” has trained with top vocal coach Seth Riggs who has also been involved with many other mainstream Artists and has helped them succeed in the industry. “Cruz” has been signed previously to 2 independent record labels and 1 major record label (Universal's "Bungalow Records"), as well as having been part of multiple advertising projects including billboards, print ads, commercials and countless magazine covers. She also makes it a priority to be involved with charity work in the Latin community and raising awareness for campaigns such as anti-bullying, women rights and domestic violence. -- The real worth of “Cruz” is much more than all of these things mentioned above. Her true strength lies in her character, hard work and determination to be a positive influence to others to not give up in chasing their dreams while helping others along the way. Her journey so far has not been easy, but she will certainly show that her current and future pending projects in collaboration with “Tambora Records International” (Tamboramusic.com ) shall make a strong and attractive impact to her listeners.“No matter the dream you have, believe in it; You can do anything you want to do.
