She started as a singer and actress in the TV shows "Tardes De Sol," "Movete Con Georgina," and "Del Tomate." In 2000, she relocated to the United States and has since starred in over 100 theatre and film productions, further building upon her natural foundation in the performing arts. Additionally, she has worked as a lead singer, songwriter, producer, and as a solo artist. She also hosted the internationally renowned Underground Rebel Bingo events in NYC, D.C., Philadelphia, and Miami.

Over the past 11 years ROGUE has immersed herself in her DJ career, training with some of NYC’s top DJs including DJ's Noumenon, Dirty Digits, and 2X USA DMC Champion DJ Esquire. In February of 2016, ROGUE and Noumenon joined forces and co-founded Brooklyn Took It; a monthly event in Crown Heights, which has grown to be one of Brooklyn's favorite and most popular dance parties. She also hosted her own radio show alongside Stefane Be & Noumenon titled Mad Science, where they showcased a variety of Underground Hip-Hop talent on a weekly basis.

In March of 2016, ROGUE's passion for Hip-Hop led her to connecting with Brooklyn-based Emcee Scienze.
