A native of Queens, New York, Jorge-Luis Pallo received his BFA in Theatre from New York University Tisch School of the Arts. He has studied with Camryn Manheim, Bob Moss, Travis Preston, and Chuck Jones. Jorge worked as a teaching assistant at the Puerto Rican Traveling Theatre serving inner city kids in New York. Since relocating to Los Angeles seven years ago, Jorge has been a part of the Scott Sedita Acting Studios family, first as student, then as teaching assistant, and now as teacher.

Jorge has honed an impressive acting pedigree appearing as a recurring character on Showtime's critically acclaimed Resurrection Blvd and in numerous notable guest appearances on NYPD Blue, The Shield, Malcolm in the Middle, Charmed, Moesha, Sabrina, and others. His films include Steven Spielberg's Minority Report and War of the Worlds. On stage, Jorge has been seen in Juan & Sooz (Los Angeles), Serious Money (New York), A Few Good Men (NY), and others.

Creating a safe and nurturing environment where young actors "never apologize" when they "try and fail and try again" is paramount to Jorge's teaching philosophy. Jorge strives to instill in his students a flexible and open "way of seeing" the world and a heightened instinct for being truthful in front of camera and "real in the moment." You can catch him as Marc Molina on "The Secret Life of the American Teenager", ABC Family's new hit TV series.
