[Music] California mornings just hit different. Especially when sunlight pours through rows of purple jackaranda trees glowing over the winding hill that leads to a warm little bungalow tucked into the heart of Los Angeles. And right here where the sound of Hollywood Boulevard hums in the distance lives a young woman shaking up the industry in real time.

So, Chitel Gomez, Marvel Rising Star, Dancing with the Stars Champion, Tik Tok Sweetheart, and the new Gen Z Force redefining what it means to be a Latina in Hollywood. But before the lights, the fandoms, and the Marvel spotlight, there was a little girl from Los Angeles learning to dream big.

Zochid Fiona Gomez Dins known as Zochidal Gomez was born on April 29th 2006 in Los Angeles, California. Her heritage runs deep. Both of her parents are Mexican with her father originally from Melos and working in construction while her mother spent years as a set decorator in the film industry before focusing fully on her daughter’s budding career.

So Chid grew up in a bilingual Spanish-sp speakaking household that blended the energy of LA with the warmth and tradition of Mexican culture. She spent her earliest years in Hollywood before her family moved to Echo Park when she was 5, a neighborhood filled with artists, Latinx families, and the kind of colorful community that shaped her world view.

She often describes her childhood as living in both worlds, balancing public school life with the cultural richness at home. Even her first name Zochett pronounced S O H comes from the indigenous Nawatal language meaning flower. As an only child, she thrived in a nurturing environment that encouraged creativity from the start.

Her acting journey began almost accidentally. At age 5, her mother enrolled her in a local musical theater class, a small production of The Little Mermaid. So Chiddle didn’t just enjoy it, she lit up. She went on to perform in 22 full-length musical theater productions by the time she was 12, building stage presence, discipline, and confidence far beyond her years.

Inspired by Jennifer Lawrence in The Hunger Games, she told her mom she wanted to act for real. And so around age 10, Sochid started auditioning daily, sometimes four or five auditions after school, mostly for commercials and tiny roles. The competition was intense and she often heard no simply because casting directors wanted children who resembled established actors. But so didn’t quit.

Instead, she found her lane in Los Angeles short films and student projects, appearing in roughly 13 short films and earning multiple awards for best young actress at indie film festivals. These projects, though small, helped her build a reputation as a hard-working, expressive, and versatile young performer.

Her TV break came in 2018 with a guest role on Disney Channel’s Ravens Home, followed by a supporting role in the independent action series Shadow Wolves, 2019. A performance that earned her a young artist award. Then came the role that put her on the industry’s radar, Dawn Schaefer in Netflix’s The Babysitters Club 2020. Her portrayal, warm, socially conscious, and deeply relatable, drew critical praise and landed her on Variety’s Power of Young Hollywood list.

She left the show after season 1 for a reason that would change her life, that she was joining Marvel. In 2022, Zochett made her blockbuster debut as America Chavez in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. At just 16, she entered one of the biggest franchises on Earth, instantly gaining global recognition, massive fan support, and a solid place in the future of the MCU.

And then she did something no Marvel star had done before. She competed on Dancing with the Stars. By 2023, paired with professional dancer Valentine Chmeovski, Joel became the youngest celebrity of the season and went on to win, earning the inaugural Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy with perfect scores across the final weeks.

She then joined the national DWTS Live Tour in 2024 and returned in season 34 for a Jive Relay appearance. Her rise has been fast, bright, and unstoppable. A path shaped by talent, discipline, and her distinctly Gen Z authenticity. And behind that whirlwind success is a Los Angeles home that feels just as youthful, warm, and full of creative spark as she is. Los Angeles home.

Heart of Hollywood rising star. For a rising Hollywood star, many people expect glass towers, marble fountains, and driveways full of paparazzi. But so Chil Gomez, she chose something different. something way more her. Tucked into a leafy Los Angeles street just steps from Sunset Boulevard sits her charming four-bedroom, three-b California bungalow.

The kind of home that feels instantly warm, artistic, and quietly stylish. It’s the sort of place you walk into and immediately think, “Yep, this belongs to a creative kid who grew up here and somehow stayed grounded.” The ground floor keeps things classic and cozy. A formal living room and dining room hold onto the home’s vintage LA character with soft natural light spilling through the front-facing windows.

The kitchen is the centerpiece, a beautifully updated space with a marble island, new high-end appliances, and a rare walk-in dining nook. The type of breakfast corner that looks straight out of a tick- tock morning routine. French windows open from the kitchen directly onto a covered patio, creating an effortless indooroutdoor flow, perfect for late night scripts, family dinners, or friends dropping by between auditions.

This main level also includes a guest bedroom and bathroom. Though in true Gen Z fashion, Zochid has transformed the guest room complete with its own closet into a hybrid family Tash TV reading room, a soft lit corner where she can decompress after long days filming or rehearsing.

The room has direct access to the backyard, making it an ideal retreat during LA’s golden hour sunsets. Upstairs, three bright, airy bedrooms bring all the charm of a peaceful hideaway in the heart of the city. The primary suite opens to a large private balcony overlooking the backyard. A quiet sanctuary where Sochid can read lines, drink iced matcha, or call her mom between press events.

The onsuite bathroom continues the dreamy feel, crafted with soft, natural tones and enough space to unwind after long days on set. The second upstairs bathroom, conveniently located for the other two bedrooms, offers picturesque views through several windows framing the lush greenery below. But the backyard is where this house truly shines.

Fully fenced and filled with bamboo, jackaranda, eucalyptus, and sycamore trees, it has the mood of a tiny private botanical garden. Two bonus structures add even more personality. A sunlit office with three antique French doors opening to the deck, perfect for Zoom auditions, content creation, or schoolwork.

and a smaller creative studio that can become a music room, pottery space, or art corner depending on which hobby currently takes over her week. The front porch, shaded and breezy, offers unexpected views of downtown Los Angeles. A constant reminder of how far she’s come and how close Hollywood has always been. And the best part, she’s just one block from Sunset Boulevard’s cafes, restaurants, bars, and shops.

the birthplace of countless actors dreams and the daily backdrop of her life. And waiting just outside this vibrant home are the cars that carry Zochett between sets, rehearsals, premieres, and her everyday teenage adventures in LA. Cars. If there were ever a new Hollywood actress starter pack, the Genesis GV80 would be front and center.

Sleek, elegant, and quietly luxurious, the Korean-made SUV feels like it was built for rising stars who want comfort without screaming for attention. So, Chitel’s model comes with the 375 horsepower twin turbo F6, giving her smooth, confident acceleration on early morning drives across LA. This is the car she takes to 6 a.m. auditions.

iced matcha in hand, script pages in the passenger seat, chasing the next big role. Then there’s the car that screams Gen Z energy. So’s Hyundai Ionic 5, a fully electric crossover with futuristic angles and instant torque. The EV’s 320 horsepower and all-wheel drive might surprise people, but the quiet acceleration and airy interior fit her perfectly.

It’s environmentally friendly, practical for LA traffic, and cool in the way only a young eco-conscious actor could pull off. And then when it’s time to flip the switch into Marvel Star mode, Zochid steps into her MercedesBenz GLE A MG53. This is where luxury meets performance. 429 horsepower, a 0 to 60 time of roughly 5 seconds, and the unmistakable AMG exhaust growl.

It’s bold, but refined, powerful, but polished. The kind of SUV you pull up in when you’re heading to a red carpet premiere, press event, or Marvel appearance. The cabin is wrapped in Napa leather, carbon fiber accents, and digital screens glowing across the dash. And yet cars only tell part of the story.

To truly understand Zochett, you have to look at how she’s building her income, her career, and her place in Hollywood. Income and net worth. As of now, Zochid Gomez’s estimated net worth is around $2 million. An impressive milestone for a 19-year-old who built her career from local theater stages to global blockbuster films.

Her income comes from a combination of acting, reality TV earnings, brand endorsements, and her fast growing presence as a Gen Z influencer. Her breakout role as America Chavez in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness 2022 transformed her career overnight. Young MCU supporting actors in comparable roles typically earn $200,000 to $500,000 plus bonuses tied to box office performance and renegotiated back-end perks for future Marvel appearances.

Before Marvel, she built steady income from roles in Netflix’s The Babysitters Club, season 1 as Dawn Schaefer, Disney Channels Ravens Home Gentified, and numerous award-winning indie short films. Post Marvel, her per project salary has climbed significantly, aligning with that of rising Hollywood Gen Z actors in high demand franchises.

Dancing with the Stars a major boost. Winning season 32 of Dancing with the Stars in 2023 gave her both visibility and a sizable payday. DWTS contestants typically earn $125,000 base salary upon signing weekly bonuses as they advance up to $295,000 plus for finalists and winners as the season’s champion. So Chitt hit the top tier.

Her earnings increased further through the DWTS Live Tour 2024, which paid additional appearance fees. Together, likely adding several hundred,000 to her yearly income. So, Chitt’s growing influence has attracted high value brand deals. Global ambassador for Adidas Sportsear, multi-year contract, industry insiders describe it as a multi-million dollar agreement for a young star.

style director for Hot Topic’s social collision line, earning compensation for design collaboration, campaign work, and sales-based bonuses. Additional work with fashion brands, Marvel marketing campaigns, and paid appearances at fan conventions. With over 8 million Tik Tok followers, constant viral content, and a highly engaged Gen Z audience, SoCl earns an estimated $200,000 to $300,000 per year through sponsored posts, short form campaigns, and creator partnerships.

Her digital presence is not just a side hustle. It’s a powerful extension of her Hollywood brand. And yet for all the fame and rising fortune, Soil has never forgotten where she comes from or the community she hopes to uplift. Philanthropy. Growing up in a bilingual Mexican-American household, she always understood what representation or the lack of it meant.

So as her platform grew, she leaned into it with intention. Whether marching, posting, or speaking out in interviews, she has consistently supported Black Lives Matter, calling for justice and equality at a time when many young stars stayed silent. She also participated in women’s march events, using her rising influence to amplify conversations around gender rights and inclusion.

Her role as America Chavez in the Marvel Cinematic Universe gave her an even larger stage. The character, a queer Latina teen superhero, instantly made Zho Chiddle a symbol for Latina visibility and LGBTQ plus representation. She’s spoken openly about how proud she is to give young fans a hero who looks like them, sounds like them, and comes from a culture often missing in Hollywood blockbusters.

For countless kids, especially Latina girls, seeing her on screen isn’t just entertainment, it’s validation. But Sochid’s advocacy doesn’t stop with social issues. She’s passionate about STEM education, proudly returning to support the first robotics program that she adored growing up. She often talks about how robotics taught her teamwork, confidence, and problem solving.

And she continues to champion the program, encouraging young people, especially girls, to explore science and technology with curiosity instead of fear. Through panels, school visits, and online engagement, she’s become a relatable role model for youth who don’t usually see themselves in STEM spaces. Her philanthropy may not always come with headlines or press releases, but it resonates because it’s genuine, grounded, and deeply personal.

 

And in the middle of the spotlight, the rumors and the pressure of Hollywood, Zochett is still just a young woman learning how to grow up. personal life. As of now, she hasn’t publicly dated anyone and appears to be single, something she often jokes about online with a mix of humor and self-awareness. Of course, being young and famous means rumors travel fast.

The latest wave hit in November 2025 after she returned to Dancing with the Stars for the show’s 20th anniversary episode during a special Jive relay. She was paired with conservationist and TV personality Robert Irwin, 21. Their chemistry on the dance floor was undeniable enough that even Judge Derek Hal commented on it. Overnight, social media exploded with edits, fan theories, and playful speculation about whether the two were secretly dating.

Neither Zochiddle nor Robert has confirmed anything. Both simply laugh off the questions, which only made fans ship them harder. But behind the cameras, she’s focused on something far more important than relationship gossip, her personal growth. Zhaoid has been open about undergoing treatment for dyslexia, speaking candidly about the challenges of learning scripts, memorizing choreography, and balancing school work.

Her honesty has resonated deeply with fans who appreciate seeing a young star talk openly about learning differences without shame. She graduated high school in 2024 and is currently in a transitional phase, juggling auditions, brand partnerships, Marvel commitments, and her own mental health. Meditation, journaling, and time with close friends keep her centered.

She often says she wants to grow at her own pace, not at the speed Hollywood pushes young actors to move. At 19, she’s living in that rare space between childhood and full-fledged adulthood, learning, evolving, and figuring out what kind of woman she wants to become.
