LORENA DEL PINO

I was born and raised in Mexico City, and from the moment I discovered that making movies could be a career, I knew it was what I wanted to do with my life. I studied Filmmaking at Anáhuac University in Mexico City, where I wrote, directed, and produced numerous short films. However, the more I immersed myself in filmmaking, the more I realized my true passion was acting.

​

After graduating, I explored the acting industry in Mexico City, gaining experience in commercial work and theatre. Eventually, I packed my bags and moved to New York City to attend acting school, ready to dive deeper into my craft.

​

What an incredible journey it has been! New York offered endless opportunities—I worked in indie theatre, indie films, commercials, and even voice-over projects. I also became a proud member of Something From Abroad, a theatre company founded by Latine immigrant women. Our mission is to produce theatre that amplifies international voices and cultures.

​

Now, after seven years, life has led me to a new adventure in Seattle. After five years in this vibrant city, I’m now a proud mom to a beautiful boy. I balance my life between my career in education and my true passion—film and theatre. These creative pursuits have always been a driving force in my life, and I continue to find inspiration in storytelling, performance, and the arts while embracing the joys of motherhood.

​

I’m excited to see what the Emerald City has in store and to continue sharing stories that connect, inspire, and celebrate diverse experiences.
