Gabriela Rodriguez

Cuban-born and Miami-raised Gabriela Rodriguez has been singing, dancing, and acting for most of her life. She played the lead roles in several middle school productions such as Grease; Annie, Jr.; The Twist of the Tongue; The Final Dress Rehearsal; Resolutions; and If These Walls Could Talk. From there she quickly moved on to television, where she was a series regular on As the Bell Rings for Disney Channel and also played the lead role in The Tenant for Reel Dreams Productions. She is currently a series regular on Days of our Lives on NBC.

Rodriguez credits her parents for their tireless support and for encouraging her to achieve her dreams. It makes her try all the harder to be a successful actor and connect with audiences on an emotional level.

In addition to television, Rodriguez wants to tackle film as an action star or in a thriller. Her interests go far beyond acting to include dancing (she has participated in several ballroom dance competitions), fashion and even psychology. She stays focused by living according to her mother's admonition, "One step at a time everything comes at the right time."

Rodriguez currently resides with her family in Los Angeles. In her down time, she enjoys swimming and motocross.
