A perfect day would be to get into the car, drive out to Yosemite and go camping.

I love traveling; it's, like, my perfect escape.
Anybody who's been to Ecuador wants to go back because it's beautiful out there.
I was a bio major, and I was going to take over my aunt's dental practice and be a dentist.
I've always been more in touch with my Ecuadorian side. I speak Spanish.
I broke into acting doing Latino roles. I played a Latino casanova in 'The Winner' and a Latino character on 'Hannah Montana.'
I've always been huge into martial arts.
Filming in India was one big adventure. For 'The Cheetah Girls', we were in Mumbai for two weeks, then Rajasthan for six weeks. Every day after shooting, I would hop into a rickshaw and start exploring the city. I even learned a bit of Hindi. It's such an amazing place to visit.
My mom pushed me to take drama class.
I love Shah Rukh Khan! I have seen many of his movies.
Childhood bullying was a big part of my life.
I moved in fourth grade in the middle of the school year, and I was the new kid in school.
The CW likes to hold on to its shows.
I think when your imagination goes to work, and when you're first bullied, you feel like you're going to die. School becomes a war zone, and you can't function.
Even when I was doing well in acting, my dad would say, 'You can still go back to dental school.' But since I've been on '90210,' I haven't heard that.
My first car was a 1986 Toyota pickup.
You never play age, you play character.
I'm a first-generation American, so I had friends from several cultures while growing up, including Indian and Iranian friends.
I discovered that I wanted to be an actor back when I did my first play in junior high. I've been doing theater in junior high and high school, and I just kept feeding the fire, kept wanting to pursue acting full-on.
