Alejandra Melgoza

You’ve built a career as both a content creator and a bilingual actress. How do these two worlds complement each other in your creative life?

Being a content creator and a bilingual actress actually complement each other in such a beautiful way. Content creation has given me the freedom to express myself authentically and connect with people directly, it’s like building a community around creativity in real time. Acting, on the other hand, allows me to dive deep into characters and narratives that go beyond myself. Together, they fuel each other, content creation keeps me creative and connected, while acting challenges me to expand emotionally and artistically. And being bilingual ties it all together, it lets me move between cultures and audiences.

Growing up in Mexico and now living in Los Angeles, how has your bicultural background shaped the way you approach your work?

My bicultural background gives me a sense of duality that really influences my work. Growing up in Mexico gave me appreciation for tradition and storytelling, while living in Los Angeles taught me how to navigate a fast paced global industry. That balance between grounding and ambition shapes how I prepare for roles. I draw from the heart and history of my roots, but I also bring in the versatility and openness that LA has given me. It makes me feel like I can connect with a wide range of stories and people, and that’s something I treasure as an artist.

You’re passionate about mental health awareness, animal welfare, and empowering young women. How do you weave those causes into your artistic journey?

For me, being an actress isn’t separate from the causes I care about, it’s all interconnected. Mental health awareness is something I bring into my work by choosing to portray characters with honesty and emotional depth, showing that vulnerability is strength. My love for animals and passion for their welfare reminds me to stay compassionate and grounded, which I think makes me a more empathetic storyteller. And empowering young women is at the core of everything I do, whether it’s through roles I take on, the content I create, or simply the way I carry myself, I want to show that it’s possible to honor your voice, your worth, and your dreams. Those causes guide me and they’re part of the bigger ‘why’ behind my artistic journey.

Your work is known for its emotional range and meaningful storytelling. What draws you to character-driven projects?

I’m really drawn to character-driven projects because they allow me to explore the complexity of being human. I love stepping into roles where the story isn’t just about what happens, but about how a character transforms through it. For me, the most meaningful storytelling comes from those intimate, emotional journeys that people can see themselves in. I think when an audience connects with a characters vulnerability or strength, it creates a lasting impact–thats the kind of work I want to be part of.

Fluency in Spanish gives you a unique voice in the industry. How has it opened doors or shaped the kinds of roles you take on?

Being fluent in Spanish gives me a unique advantage because it allows me to dream about and prepare for roles in both English and Spanish. It opens doors to stories that need cultural authenticity and it excites me to be able to bring that truth to the table.

Beyond acting, you’re learning piano and bass guitar. What inspired you to explore music at this stage in your career?

Music has always been something that moves me deeply, and I see it as another language of storytelling, just like acting. Learning piano and bass guitar right now feels like a way to expand my creative expression and sensitivity as an artist. Music trains me to listen differently, to feel rhythm and emotion in a new way. It’s less about adding another career path and more about enriching my artistry as a whole.

You also have a love for fashion and wellness. How do these passions influence your creativity and personal brand?

Fashion and wellness are both extensions of my artistry. Fashion allows me to express different sides of myself visually, it’s like character work in everyday life, where clothes become another way of telling a story. Wellness, on the other hand, keeps me grounded. Taking care of my mind and body gives me the balance and clarity I need to show up fully. Together, they influence my personal brand by reflecting both the intentional, spiritual side of who I am and the creative, playful side. I want people to feel inspired not just by my work, but by the lifestyle and values I embody.

Your two pet donkeys are such a charming and unexpected part of your LA life. How did they come into the picture, and what do they bring to your daily routine?

I’d actually always wanted donkeys, and recently I finally got them. My love for animals definitely comes from my family, we’ve always cared for and been surrounded by them. Having the donkeys in my life has been such a grounding experience. They bring so much joy, remind me to slow down, and add this really sweet balance to my everyday routine in LA.

With over 100,000 followers, you have a strong platform. How do you decide what to share to keep it both authentic and inspiring?

For me, social media has to feel authentic first, I never want it to be forced. I decide what to share by asking myself, ‘would this genuinely add value, inspire, or connect with someone? Sometimes that means a personal reflection, other times it’s a glimpse into the creative process or travels. I try to balance being intentional and inspiring while still keeping it true to who I am.

Looking ahead, what kinds of roles, projects, or creative endeavors are you most excited to pursue next?

I’m excited about stepping into roles that really push me and let me explore new sides of myself as an actress. I’m also looking forward to projects that feel meaningful and aligned with who I am, while still surprising me. For me, it’s about growth and finding stories that resonate on a deeper level.
