About
Hello,
let me introduce myself to you, my name is Alina Robert.
I was born in Havana, Cuba, and discovered at a young age that art is my passion and the core of who I am. My journey began as a young girl, memorizing full theatrical plays and performing for my entire school.
I pursued professional training in acting and academic preparation in dramatic arts upon arriving in Miami in 2008. I started studying at institutions such as Teatro Prometeo at Miami Dade College, the Centro de Formación Actoral Luz Columba, and the Adriana Barraza Acting Studio, while continually involving myself in professional theater labs and workshops. Over the years, I've worked on various projects in television, film, and theater, exploring human emotions and experiences.
Beyond performing, I've developed my skills as a producer, creative director, and marketing strategist. I gained this knowledge after graduating in Computer Science, where I gravitated towards the design and creative aspects. These roles have allowed me to blend artistic vision with strategic goals, creating compelling marketing campaigns.
Currently, I'm motivated to create my own study programs to educate young women and provide them with the skills to thrive in the entertainment industry as I did.
I believe in the power of art to connect people and evoke empathy, and I'm committed to continuous growth and mentoring the next generation of artists.
