Early life

Raquel Rojas was born in Mérida, Venezuela when her mother was studying medicine at the Universidad de Los Andes. Since childhood, Rojas was interesting in performing arts; her first foray into theatre was at age 6 at the community theater in Los Salias, San Antonio de los Altos, in Miranda.[2] She spent a large part of her childhood in this city before moving to Caracas. She then continued performing through most of her childhood and adolescence, and studying with different acting teachers while at school. She did two years of a degree in Social Communication at the Andrés Bello Catholic University and then decided to move to Miami in the United States, where she obtained a Bachelor of Performing Arts and Film from the University of Miami.[2]

Rojas speaks four languages: Spanish, English, Italian, and French.[1] She has been under the tutelage of teachers of the dramatic art that include Noel de La Cruz, Julio César Mármol and Karl Hoffman, among others.[1] Rojas is said in media to have a "fresh and attractive image". The newspaper Avance commented that "[it] has become synonymous with beauty and talent in distant lands."[2]

In 2010, Rojas, after graduating from university, had small but well-received roles in the telenovelas Perro Amor, El Fantasma de Elena y Alguien te Mira, all on Telemundo in the United States.[1][2] In 2011, she got the role of Rosa in the teen telenovela Grachi, for which she became known internationally. It premiered in Latin America on 2 May 2011.
