Early life

Dos Ramos was born in Venezuela to Portuguese parents on April 15, 1992.[2] She has two brothers, Lance Dos Ramos, an actor and entertainer, and Lenny Dos Ramos, an actor.[6][7] Dos Ramos became interested in acting at an early age.[2] According to RCTV, Dos Ramos "interacted easily with the world of television," having already been exposed when her brothers went to auditions.[8] As a child, Ramos appeared in various Venezuelan television programs,[1] and at the age of four, she attended her first screen test.[2][1]

Career

Beginnings, Animation and Acting (2003–2009)

Her first television appearance took place in 2003 on the Radio Caracas Television soap opera La Cuaima in the supporting role of Bambi Rovaina Cáceres.[8] She later appeared as Juliet on the RCTV soap opera Amor a Palos, a program about love and relationships told from the point of view of four women "who seek with all their might to love and be loved".[9][10] In 2007, the actress was scheduled to participate in the unreleased independent teen drama Fanatikas, and as Eugenia Alcoy Del Casal in the RCTV soap opera La Merienda.

In 2009, Dos Ramos continued her work as an animator for the RCTV program "Loco Video Loco."

Que el cielo me explique and Grachi (2010–2012)

In late 2009, the actress returned to acting to play Karen Montero in what would be the last production of RCTV International, Que el Cielo Me Explique.[11] The recordings of the soap opera began in December 2009 but were broadcast from the next year through Televen channel due to the blockage of RCTV in Venezuela.[12] Que el cielo me explique was positively received from the Venezuelan and foreign audience.[13] After completion of the recordings of Que el cielo me explique, Dos Ramos had several units in different auditions for the cast of Grachi, a new youth television series for Nickelodeon Latin America.[3] Dos Ramos landed the role of the main villain, Roman Matilda, "a girl who uses her powers for evil, [...] wealthy, spoiled and capricious, who also likes to sing and dance".
