Description
Today, we're thrilled to welcome actor Tia Carrera. While attending Sacred Hearts Academy, Tia was discovered in a Waikiki grocery store and landed the female lead in the film Aloha Summer. Although her passion has always been singing (grandmother Rae took Tia to her first singing lesson at age 11), Tia would continue her ascent in the acting world with a regular stint on General Hospital as Jade Soong and a string of co-starring roles on MacGyver, Quantum Leap, Married With Children, and Friday the 13th, among others.
