In 2004 she graduated and transferred to CSU, Long Beach to receive her Bachelors (2006) and Masters (2009) degrees. While in college, she participated in Forensics (speech and debate). Reyna took her mothers words to heart, and received her education before perusing her acting career.She loves comedy and horror (which is funny... right?!)

In addition to stand-up comedy, she's trained with LA Connections performing short-form improv shows to a live audience.Reyna (or Chainsaw Queen) is a regular scare-actor with TenThirtyOne Productions and work as their resident chainsaw character for The Great Horror Campout and The LA Haunted Hay Ride.

Travel, and is featured on various promotional materials.Reyna is not only funny and scary, she's also a reality star! Reyna was featured in a season 4 episode of LA Ink where she received a beautiful portrait of her father with 4 year old Reyna from Corey Miller. The producers of LA Ink loved her so much, they brought her in to audition for a new make-over show and I got it! Reyna was featured in the first episode of Drag U with RuPaul! On the show she was made over as Candy Graham! She worked the runway. She danced a choreographed dance. Most of all Reyna showed her Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve, and Talent! Show less «
