Biography
Cristina Umaña anchored her career on playing complex, morally compromised women—most visibly Judy Moncada, the cocaine kingpin's wife in Netflix's Narcos. Born December 24, 1974, in Colombia, she trained rigorously at Televisa's Centro de Educación Artística from 1993 to 1995 before returning home to lead telenovelas. Yo amo a Paquita Gallego and La mujer del presidente established her as a leading dramatic voice in Colombian television. Her 2019 pivot to English-language streaming—Gloria Bonalde in Amazon's Jack Ryan—cemented her as a cross-platform actor. Actors inhabit character psychology and perform across mediums from stage to screen. Umaña, a Capricorn, channels the sign's reputation for discipline and emotional control into roles that demand both. Colombian by citizenship, she bridges Latin American telenovela tradition and global streaming production.
