Mini bio

Finding the stage.

Born in Cleveland to a Peruvian mother and an American father, Isabela grew up between cultures. She found a community in theater after a fire destroyed her family’s home, then trained at the Fairmount Performing Arts Conservatory and began auditioning in New York.

From Broadway to Dora.

Working first as Isabela Moner, she made her Broadway debut in Evita at ten. Nickelodeon’s 100 Things to Do Before High School gave her an early lead role as CJ Martin. She later starred as Dora in Dora and the Lost City of Gold.

Music in her own voice.

Her 2015 album Stopping Time came before the Isabela Merced chapter. In 2019 she adopted her grandmother’s name and released PAPI, co-written with Justin Tranter. Her bilingual songs draw on Latin pop and Peruvian influences; the five-song EP the better half of me followed in 2020.

Songs and screen worlds.

She has collaborated with Danna Paola on Don’t Go and Kayfex on Agonía. After Cuffing Season in 2024, she revisited Apocalipsis with Tony Succar in 2025. The same year brought Dina in The Last of Us and Hawkgirl in Superman.
