A native of Texas, Raini Rodriguez moved to Los Angeles in 2005 to pursue her dream of acting and singing.

Soon after being discovered at a nation-wide talent competition, Raini began working in television. Known by Disney fans for her role of “Betsy” in the Sleepover Suite episode of Disney’s The Suite Life of Zack and Cody,  Raini also starred as the memorable “Arlene Roca” aka “Annoying Arlene” in Disney XD’s I’m in the Band. Some of her other television credits are Nickelodeon’s True Jackson, Showtime’s Huff, and ABC’s Family of the Year. Movie-going audiences embraced Raini in her feature film debut Paul Blart: Mall Cop, where she starred as Kevin James’ daughter.

Raini is eagerly awaiting the release of Disney’s Feature Film PROM where she stars as “Tess.”  Filming PROM came at a perfect time in Raini’s life since she was homeschooled and didn’t have a Prom of her own. She is currently in production filming Disney’s new pilot Austin and Alley. 

Raini is grateful to be living her dream and watching her little brother Rico Rodriguez have a blast in his role of “Manny Delgado” in ABC’s hit sitcom, Modern Family.
