Marta got her acting start when the glorious Lorna Hill pulled her aside and said "Sugah, Did you know you're an actress?" and cast her as various characters in the musical GREEN PASTURES at Ujima Theatre. Though Marta has a love for acting, her first love is singing. Putting them together for such an outstanding production such as IN THE HEIGHTS, for her, is a dream come true. Marta would like to thank her friends (especially Josue) and family especially Melvin, her 2 sisters and her five children for being such great support through this amazing time.
