With a rich cultural heritage-her father hailing from Costa Rica and her mother from the Philippines-Shyinne grew up in a lively, family-focused environment that nurtured her outgoing and creative spirit.
Her journey into acting began early, sparked by a teacher's nomination for a special theater program during elementary school. This pivotal moment ignited a lifelong passion for performance, which she continued to cultivate through drama classes in high school. At 23, inspired by her father's experience as a background performer and her own unwavering drive, Shyinne decided to pursue acting professionally, quickly finding success in the industry.

Shyinne's commitment to her craft is supported by her active participation in her local improv community, where she takes classes and performs regularly, sharpening her comedic timing and creative instincts. She lightly trains in martial arts and maintains a disciplined fitness routine that includes yoga and strength training four times a week, which enhances her ability to tackle physically demanding roles with confidence and precision.
Off-screen, Shyinne is a proud member of UBCP/ACTRA since 2021 and embraces her ethnic ambiguity, which allows her to authentically portray a wide range of characters and stories. She is also a devoted mother to a talented daughter who is following in her footsteps, and together they balance family life with their artistic pursuits. An avid fitness enthusiast and lover of outdoor adventure, she thrives in nature-whether hiking, paddle boarding, or snowboarding.
