Future plans

Regarding her future plans, Montes responded, “I have a few more projects this year, but I can’t say too much about them yet. You will be the first to know.

Advice for young and aspiring actors

For young and aspiring actors and models, she said, “I would tell them to have a lot of patience and to go after your dreams and to fight for your dreams. Be really disciplined. Remember while there will be a lot of rejections in this industry, there will be a person who will tell you ‘yes’.”

Career-defining moment: Moving to Mexico

Her career-defining moment involved moving to Mexico. “When I moved to Mexico, everything started to change in my career,” she said.

“I started to grow and thrive. I was able to do ‘La Condesa’ and that moment was huge for me. Everything changed in my life and my career, so I am very thankful for Mexico, which is always in my heart,” she added.

Stage of her life

On the title of the current chapter of her life, Montes said with a sweet laugh, “From nothing to everything.”

Superpower of choice

Her superpower of choice would be to “change minds.” “That would be perfect,” she admitted. “Or to read minds and see what people really think. Also, teleportation would be great as well. That would allow me to instantly be in Los Angeles, Mexico, and Peru.”

Favorite motto to live by

On her favorite motto to live by, she shared, “To be positive everyday for everything. Also, to focus on the goals in my life.”

Success

Regarding her definition of the word success, Montes said, “Success means feeling good. Getting to where you are, and to where I want to be. Feeling that I did it in my career.”
