“My priority as single mother is to provide and to raise a healthy, strong, happy eleven year old boy.

I love my role as a mother as well as working as an agent. It’s not a job it’s what I love to do.”

When did you first think about acting as something you wanted to do? How did that evolve into your present business? Were you encouraged or discouraged by family, friends, teachers, mentors?

I was five years old when I told my mom that I wanted to be an actress.

I was a happy girl who loved to dance and smile all day long. I grew up in a middle class family with two other sisters. My mother taught me to work hard and follow my dreams.

"A girl who loved

to dance and

smile all day

long. ”

She started receiving, even more, fame after starring in “The Violent Kind”.

She starred in the comedy named “The Cattle Call” along with Chelsea Handler. She also appeared in a number of feature films made by American film production houses New Image and Millennium.

Her dreams led her to Europe where she became one of the top models.

Several model agencies hired her to work in Paris, Milan, Hamburg and Madrid. Soon some producers from Hollywood who were on a lookout for a sexy, young girl took notice of Sandra. This is how she landed the significant role of Elena Sanchez in Ángeles.

Why did you decide to give up a lucrative modeling career in Europe to come to America?

I came to the USA with a contract to work on a TV Series, but the thing that was the strongest pull on me was to act in another language. At that time having a strong Latin accent wasn’t ok. I spent thousands of dollars in dialogue coaches to get my English more clear on the set.

She gained a great fan following after it started airing. It was co-produced by Sony Pictures and Telemundo. The Spanish version of Charlie’s Angels gained huge popularity among the Spanish-speaking audience. Soon she started living a lifestyle a few could dream of having. A lavish life surrounded by celebrities. She was seen in all the high-class parties and often with various handsome men..

How has working so hard all over the world affected your personal life?

I missed my mom and my sister and I still do.

Sandra Vidal was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina on September 17. She grew up in a comfortable home and had a good childhood. Since childhood, she had a natural inclination towards modelling.

She attended school in her hometown. She studied acting with Argentine directors such as Alberto Ure, Flores Yunguerman and Rodolfo Vias. Along with that, she continued to pursue economics. She also attended dance and piano classes.

What led you into real estate?

I started flipping properties as soon as I moved from Buenos Aires, while working as an actor. I’d rather have a brand new kitchen than an expensive purse.

Once I came to America I had a dream to get my real estate license. I accomplished that five years ago. I started working as a agent and I love helping my clients realize their dreams coming true. I like helping them find the right price for a home they’re selling or buying or helping them with the creative process of building a home.

I still work at The Bold and The Beautiful soap opera as recurrent character. I’ve done it in a while... the show has 32 actors. I did 4 season of Rica Famosa Latina for three years. Currently it’s in Netflix and 35 countries of Latin America and USA Spanish Estrella TV.

I’m currently working as a fulltime agent for PLG Estates.

My priority as single mom is to provide and to raise a healthy, strong, happy 11 years old boy. I love my job as a mom as well as working as an agent. It’s not a JOB it’s what I LOVE to do. So I don’t work a single day of my life.

What is your plan for the future?

My dream is to get the rights of a book that I love and turn it into a movie. The books of Psychology and Spirituality.
