Born to Dominican immigrant parents Dorcas grew up with a very traditional yet spicy background. Her mother was a social worker and her father a mechanic by day and musician by night. This led to a very busy household full of socializing. The 3rd youngest of 4, Dorcas grew up performing for guests as well as her siblings. Her love of performance extended beyond the home and soon performing became an extra curricular addiction. She started performing in church and in theatre, basically any where she could express herself. Even along the many family road trips, Dorcas found ways to create stories and keep her family amused. This love of entertaining led Dorcas to pursue the arts in middle and high school by joining band, choir and drama. She later studied Theatre in college as well as film production and knew this was where she was meant to be. She later performed Improv for several years in Atlanta and booked several commercials and indie films before making the move to LA. She describes herself as an Actress passionate about the art of story telling.
