Hi there. I'm Mariah Shianne Rios. I'm 16 years old. I was born on may 17th 1992 in Hershey, PA. I have long dark brown hair and blue eyes with a medium skin complexion. I'm quite the shrimp as in I'm a very petite young lady standing just south of 4'9. I was born 3 months premature weighing a stunning 1 pound 4 ounces landing me in an incubator growing for 3 months after my birth. My birth causes quite a bit of media attention from the news papers so right from the start I was already taking center stage. When people would see me out on the streets with my mom when I was a little girl passerbyes would always stop and comment on how I looked identical to the oleson twins and how I was so tiny and adorable I should do some modeling. So my mom signed me up for some modeling at the local malls and wedding pictures and I did this for 3 years. It was no suprise to my parents that I was quite the little actress when I was a girl I use to watch the movie Annie over and over so I could renact my favorite scenes, as i would do this with Firestarter as well. When I was 7 my mom suffered a sevre brain annurism wich put her in a permanent coma my dad and I to fend for ourselves. My dad would work during the day and I would be home alone so I didnt know how to entertain myself so I would just put in a movie and film myself reanacting the scenes. I did this every day, pretty soon it was somewhat like routine to me. My dad knew I had alot to work on with the acting but he saw a slight bit of potentional for my age so he signed me up with In the Spotlight Talent agency in Lancaster, PA. and over the next 4 years I took about 12 acting classes and seminars with them and get updated headshots each year and do little film productions as an extra. in 2005 I signed up to work as an actress at the Field Of Screams Americas #1 Haunted halloween seasonal attraction. I Had to audition for this But the manager said that I was to young being only 12 and it was no reason for me to go to the audidtions. But I went anyway, and ended up getting a job right on the spot. at the end of the season I went on to win the Best Actress rookie of the year award. 3 years later I'm a makup artist and actress for FOS. Special f/x makeup is a major hobbie/carreer of mine. I have a huge passion for certain makeups the certain textures, color pallets, ageing, tools, ect.. so I started expieriementing and discovered I was quite good. odd thing is is that I cant do cosmetic makeup to save my life! FOS found out I could do makeup and with open arms put me on the makeup team! I also have passion for Dance. I've been a dancer for 11 years. I started when I was 3 studying tap, jazz and Ballet at the Blake mauney studio of dance. I danced there for 9 years then switched to the E-dance center and reside there today. I learn tap, street tap, irish step, hip hop, break dance, ballroom, contemporary, modern, yoga, tango, ballet, crump, and dance video production. E-dance also offers vocal lessons wich I take and offers acting coaching and Musical productions wich I've been in all three musical song productions. As of right now I reside at 140 N spruce street Elizabethtown, Pa where I live with my humbeling father and practice monologues and scripts everynight as a daily routine just wating to get noticed and get the chance to show this buisness what I've got. I may not got "it" but I've got something!

I won 1 award for acting at americas number 1 haunted attractoin Field Of Screams I won best actress of the year rookie of the year.. worked at Field Of Screams for 2 years, was in theater for 3 years, was in 2 films as an extra, took 8 acting classes, 2 workshops

working with special f/x makeup. making little horror films of my own, writing my own scripts, practicing monologues every night, reanacting out horror movies or other movie I love, working at Field Of Screams haunted attratction, going to other haunted attractions, scaring my friends, playing with animals and young children, talking, waching discovery health channel, writing....ect

to be the best actress I can be.. I'm not looking to go on and win many awards.. although that would be nice, I'm looking for fun.. I love acting I just love how i can loose myself totally and just become somonels its such a great feeling and expiereince.. when i'm acting.. I'm never Mariah, I'm automaticly that character. I want to hopefully get a leading role in a few films.. or if not leading, atleast supporting.. I want to go somwhere with this I want the giantic movie characters with tons of script and psychiacal activity that not alot of actors want.. I want that challenge... This is my dream.. I would give up anything for this I really adore horror movies, I'm very good at being the villan.. nothing is more creepier then a little girl with pigtails and with dark eyes just staring up at you with an evil grin.. and I would love to some day hopefully, befor im to old to play a young girl who is evil.. or good but scary.. this is my dream.. and I hope for it to some day.. come true
