Ariel Mirabal-Ramos was born in 1981 and raised in Brooklyn, New York.
He began attending high school in Coney Island and moved to South
Florida at the age of 15. Hollywood, Florida became Ariel's new home
until the age of 17 when he enlisted in the United States Army. After
serving five years in the military, Ariel was offered an opportunity to
work as a federal civilian for the Department of Defense where he
traveled abroad working alongside the Combatant Commander. While
traveling, Ariel took up an interest in the art of filmmaking and began
creating his first featurette. In 2005, "Faded," written and directed
by Ariel Mirabal-Ramos, was selected to be screened at a Hollywood,
California film festival. This experience propelled Ariel to pack his
bags and move to the City of Angels, to pursue his passion of both
acting and filmmaking.
I was always told not to base my life on dreams. But if anything is
possible, that slight possibility is what drives me to achieve what I
was born to become. So as long as the blood is blue in my veins, I will
never stop chasing my dreams.
