Career

Seidy's experience as a performer began at age 12 when she formed a singing group called "Sensation". The group won several talent competitions in Los Angeles. At the age of 14 she decided to focus on her vocal skills, and with the help of her Jr. High teacher, Mr. Gleason, she auditioned for the Los Angeles County High School for the Arts at California State University.

As a member of their vocal ensemble, Seidy was given the opportunity to perform in such prestigious venues as the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion. The following year at Hollywood High School of the Performing Arts, Seidy discovered theater and focused her attention on acting.

At the age of seventeen Seidy also became a member of an educational theater troupe called "Project Able". The theater troupe toured venues throughout California, including jails and juvenile halls, teaching AIDS education.

Seidy's big break came in 1993 when Alison Anders cast her as Mousie in her critically acclaimed movie Mi Vida Loca.

Starring in this film helped Seidy gain recognition in the Latino community and gave her the opportunity to work with other directors such as Quentin Tarantino, Joel Schumacher and Antoine Fuqua.

She has appeared in many of Gregory Nava's films, such as Mi Familia and Selena. Nava later reunited her with Esai Morales in his series American Family.

Seidy's career has continued with roles such as Cindy in the film Luminarias, Elian's mother in The Elian Gonzales Story, Gabriela in the self-titled film, and the bakery girl Cynthia Limon in the television series Resurrection Blvd.
