Extraordinary and talented are just a few words to describe innate artist Emily Tosta.Emily has been in the entertainment business since the age of six, when she discovered her passion for singing, acting and dancing. At that same age, Emily started being recognized by the local media because of a print campaign she did for the distinguished magazine A La Moda in Dominican Republic. She began her acting career at the age of eight, with a lead role in the well-known musical 'The Pied Piper of Hamelin.' It was then that she began refining her musical and acting skills and began booking projects in those fields, landing her first acting job in 'Annie: The Musical.' It wasn't before long that this Santo Domingo native was getting roles in various musicals such as 'The Miracle of Fatima,' 'Alice in Wonderland,' 'Cats,' 'Like in Broadway,' and 'A Christmas Adventure in Broadway,' to name a few.Her youthful determination and irrefutable talent have also taken Emily into other artistic fields. She has been featured in print advertisements for companies such as 'Dino Cookies,' 'La Sirena Kids,' 'Tamarindo YA,' 'D.E Enterprises,' among others. She has also starred in numerous commercials for brands like 'Carnation,' 'Dominican Qoala,' 'Claro TV,' 'Malla Group,' and some more.Furthermore, Emily has done important runway shows such as 'Dominican Fashion Week,' 'Virginia's House Beauty and Fashion Fair,' 'Jaragua Hotel Beauty Fair' and 'Pink Runway.'In addition, Emily's TV credits also include guest-starring roles on Latin shows such as 'Noche de Luz,' 'Hola Gente,' 'Navidad Espectacular' and 'Sabado Chiquito de Corporan' (her participation here was done in such an extraordinary way that she was requested to be the hostess of this four hour live show in which she gained the audience's hearts).Emily's mother decided it was time to expand her career so they moved to sunny Miami, FL when she was 12 years old. Over there, Emily booked roles in short films such as 'Just Do Good' and 'Trapped.' She guest-starred in Telemundo's 'Dama Y Obrero' and also booked a lead role on the web-series 'United Families.' Additionally, Emily did a news segment for Univision's Generacion 23. However, it doesn't stop there, she did her first professional singing gig at age twelve when she performed the National Anthem in a recognition act in the city of Miami for the Supreme Court Judge of The United States of America. That led her to continue her music career by singing at events such as The Pub Club Opening, events by the American Cancer Society Fundraiser, events related to the Venezuelan Elections, and many others.After living in Miami for almost 4 years, the Tosta family decided it was time to make the big move to Los Angeles, California. A few weeks after arriving, Emily signed with the prestigious 'The Corsa Agency,' having Thomas Richards as her agent. Emily recently finished filming her latest project, 'The Last Ship' which will be airing Summer 2014 on TNT.Emily devotes a lot of her time helping the community and working with organizations such as Music For Your Heart Foundation, PETA, The Dream Center, Los Angeles Children's Hospital, Operation Smiles, and more. When Emily isn't working, she loves to stay active by doing outdoor activities and attending TRX classes, Ballet, Modern Dance and Yoga. She also enjoys hanging out with her family and friends, swimming, playing guitar and piano, making YouTube videos, and helping families, kids and animals in need. Hide
