For people who've never seen me before, some of my material is quite a surprise. I look like your sister or neighbour, and then I come out with something quite dark or shocking, and it's so unexpected.

It might sound dramatic and a little grandiose, but as a Latina, I would like to be someone that gives a voice to my culture.

[T]he first big laugh I got was probably on A Prairie Home Companion. When I started on that show, I was 10 and I played Garrison Keillor’s conscience. And I don’t remember trying to be funny. I was just saying the words and my voice is very high and already funny and I think I just played it very straight, it worked really well against his baritone booming voice. That was probably the first really big reaction I got from a huge audience.
