Biografía
Hailey Hermida is a Mexican-American actress and singer/songwriter originally from Dallas, Texas. Hailey started acting at age six when she was signed by Linda McAlister in Texas.
Shortly after moving to Los Angeles, Hailey booked her first radio spot at age seven.
Her screen credits include Young Elena on "Elena of Avalor" (Disney Jr.). She has also voiced several characters for "Maya and the Three" on Netflix. She has appeared in Anonymous Killers on Amazon Prime, Klaus on Netflix, Reverie on NBC, along Sarah Shahi, and several national commercials. In July 2022, Hailey released her first song, a collaboration with producer/songwriter Nathan Areas, called "HowTheseThingsGo."
In addition to acting, Hailey has also been singing every step of the way, inspired by young artists like Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo, and Harry Styles.
Like many others her age during the pandemic lockdown, Hailey felt lost, alone, and confused. She decided to use that time to return to journaling, and after realizing how many other kids her age were experiencing the same thoughts and feelings, she began to turn some of those entries into song lyrics.
That's when she started working with her friend, actor, producer/songwriter Nathan Arenas, to set those lyrics to music. The result of this collaboration is her first single, "HowTheseThingsGo," released on July 1, 2022 and part of an eight -track EP to be released early 2023.
"HowTheseThingsGo" combines a nostalgic, upbeat 80s feel with a message about perseverance and resilience that belies her years. About writing the lyrics, Hailey says: "I think everyone goes through periods when it feels like everything is working against them, and it's important to remind ourselves that we are not alone."
That's Hailey's mission: using her creative drive and artistic talents to connect people. Whether it's through singing, acting, or her TikTok account (where she is known as "the GOAT" thanks to a viral video that has amassed over 30 million views), Hailey's mantra is: "If there's any way I can help or make people feel less alone you best BELIEVE I'll do it!"
Hailey lives in California. When she's not performing, Hailey enjoys going to the beach and spending time with her family and friends.
