Most recently Izabella can be heard voicing the lead spunky character, 'Ronnie Anne Santiago,' in Nickelodeon's "The Casagrandes." The animated series tells the story of 11-year- old Ronnie Anne after she moves to the city with her older brother Bobby and her mom, where they now live with their big, loving multi-generational family, the Casagrandes. By depicting stories based on Mexican-American and Latino themes, "The Casagrandes" is a bridge to Latino culture.

And will be seen as lead in the in the upcoming CW's "The Republic of Sarah," currently in production.

LA Times writes, "Izabella Alvarez, a Rising Latina Star, commands desperation-ridden scenes with skill and maturity."

Talia Jackson has been auditioning since the age of 7 and didn't get her first break until August 2018 when she booked the series regular role of Jade McKellan in Netflix's Family Reunion and Zoe in ABC's Station19. She booked the series regular role of Dusty Gable on ABC/Warner/Berlanti/Diablo Cody pilot Raised by Wolves in 2017 but it didn't get picked up. Talia is also a singer and will release her first single "I'm not Jealous" in July 2019.

Talia moved from Wisconsin with her mother and brother to Santa Barbara in February 2009 after a divorce to be near relatives and to pursue her dreams of becoming an actress and singer. For 10 years she auditioned and booked 1 small independent film and a couple of commercials but didn't book a TV role or film that actually aired somewhere. She was close to giving up on her acting career right before she booked a starring role in Family Reunion and Station 19 in the same month.
