Early life Francis Romero was born in Caracas. She grew up in the Chacao development with her mother and two brothers, Alessandro and Christian.
Whilst in her fifth year of high school, she enrolled in The National Theater School, now closed. Finishing high school, she began relentlessly looking for training as an actor: she trained in the "Actors Studio" of Enrique Porte, then in 1998 graduated from the University Institute of Theatre (IUDET), now the National Experimental University of the Arts (UNEARTE), with a cum laude degree in Theater Management and Production.
Career Her beginnings in television were at Radio Caracas Televisión (RCTV), where she played extra roles like "elevator rider 3" and "secretary 4". Little by little she got better roles until winning a lead in the telenovela La dama de rosa, by José Ignacio Cabrujas. However, her first contract was later, for Caribbean, when an actress in the cast got pregnant and Romero was called as an emergency replacement. She worked at RCTV for thirteen years.
Francis then moved to the channel Venevision to join the cast of Aunque mal paguen, by Alberto Barrera Tyzka, where she played "Sagrario".
Similarly, she has starred in several films, including two short films ("La Transfusión", by Hugo Gerdel, and "Onda Corta", by Carolina Vila) and feature films including Operación Billete, by Olegario Barrera; Luna Llena, by Ana Cristina Henríquez; Disparen a Matar, by Carlos Azpúrua; and Móvil Pasional by Mauricio Walerstein.
She is also a certified speaker from the School of Social Communication of the Central University of Venezuela. Her voice and image has appeared in several advertising messages and radio soap operas.
She joined the cast of Gaz, a version of Euripides' The Trojan Women that was shown in the theater La Mama Experimental Theatre Club (La MaMa ETC) in New York City, directed by Elia Schneider.Mayo de Estrellas en ¡Que locura!
