Mariana Adams Foster and her sister, Callie Adams Foster, are trying to find their way in the world as young adults. Mariana faces challenges at work and in her personal life. Fortunately, when things at work or in her personal life don’t go as planned, she has her sister to go to for help and advice. 

Who plays Mariana on ‘Good Trouble’?

Cierra Ramirez plays Mariana Adams Foster. One of her early roles was in a 2006 episode of CSI: Miami titled “Deviant.” That year, she made her film debut in the movie All In. In 2012, Ramirez joined the cast of The Secret Life of the American Teenager. She played Kathy for 22 episodes from 2012 to 2013. Ramirez is also known for her appearances in The Fosters, Girl in Progress,and The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.

Mariana has faced a lot of challenges

There have been a lot of changes and challenges in Mariana’s life. One of the biggest blows was losing the friends she made at Speckulate. They severed their relationship with her after they found out she was dating Evan Speck, the owner of the company they accused of fueling a hostile work environment for women and people of color.

Mariana tried to salvage the relationship by breaking up with Evan and showing her support for her friends and their business venture, Bulk Beauty. Unfortunately, they couldn’t find it in their hearts to forgive her, so they walked out and said they couldn’t see themselves being her business partner or her friend.

Mariana asks her friends for a job

With some prompting from Callie, Mariana decides to ask her former friends for a job as a programmer. It’s a demotion, but Callie points out that getting demoted and being able to get her friends back is better than not having their friendship at all. Mariana agrees and asks the group if they would take her back. They reluctantly accept her back and tell her she can work for them.

It’s going to be tough for Mariana to adjust. She’s used to being in charge, so this will be a big change for her. Hopefully, things will work out and she will be able to work in a position where she isn’t calling the shots.

What’s next for Cierra Ramirez

Ramirez has a new project outside Good Trouble. It was recently announced she will star in the independent film The Re-Education of Molly Singer, reports Deadline. Ramirez will play Lindsay, a college student in the middle of a love triangle.

Good Trouble airs Wednesdays on Freefrom and the next day on Hulu.
