Shalim Ortiz recently starred in the hit TV Show HEROES, where he played the major recurring character ‘Alejandro Herrera’. His performance on the show led him to receive a nomination for the prestigious Imagen Foundation Award in 2008. Shalim’s recent projects include Guest Starring on COLD CASE, CSI: MIAMI and Co-Starring in the Hallmark Channel film EXPECTING A MIRACLE, with Teri Polo (Meet the Parents), Jason Priestley (B.H. 90201) and Cheech Marin. Shalim wrapped the lead on his first supernatural thriller GURDIAN. Parallel with these recent projects, Ortiz joined the cast of MANEATER, an original ‘Lifetime Television’ Mini-Series starring Sarah Chalke.
In Panama, he shot the feature film ART OF TRAVEL costarring Brooke Burns, Chris Masterson, and Johnny Messner. His next film SPIN, marked Shalim’s first Lead Role carrying a film. Here his music shines as he also wrote, produced and performed the title song “Rosario” on the film’s soundtrack. Shalim also stars in his first foreign language film YUNIOL, filmed in the Dominican Republic. This is the first time Shalim and his renowned mother Charytin Goyco work together professionally in a feature film. His performance in YUNIOL marks Ortiz’ first nomination for ‘Best Actor’ at the prestigious 2008 Casandra Awards held in the Dominican Republic.
Shalim was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico on February 26. At an early age, he moved to Miami, Florida where he developed his skills in music and acting. He later joined the Thespian Society of Performing Arts and developed a passion for theater. Before completing elementary school, he had already been part of a much successful television show called LOS ANGELITOS (Little Angels). His desire to branch out led him to take on projects as a guest host in various shows ("Evolution", "Pepsi Charts", etc.), and later as a model.
As theater has always played a key role in Shalim’s life, he performed as the lead in Oliver Mayer’s much acclaimed cabaret musical entitled ‘Rocío In Spite Of It All’. The prestigious L.A. Times hailed Shalim’s performance saying: “silken-voiced Shalim steals several scenes as a dazzled fan who befriends these dueling divas”.
Shalim's first passion lays in music. He dedicated himself to write and become a renowned recording artist, delivering two albums (Sony Records) combining his Spanish roots with Latin beats and influences from rock and ballads; the music he grew up with.

Las realidades más grandes y más bellas, tanto más las tendrás cuanto menos las poseas y retengas.
Si quieres tener el mar, contémplalo, y abre tus manos en sus aguas y todo el mar estará en ellas; porque si cierras tus manos para retenerlo, se quedarán vacías.
Si quieres tener un amigo peregrino, déjalo marchar y lo tendrás; porque si lo retienes para poseerlo, lo estarás perdiendo, y tendrás un prisionero.
Si quieres tener el viento, extiende tus brazos y abre tus manos y todo el viento será tuyo; porque si quieres retenerlo te quedarás sin nada.
Si quieres tener a tu hijo, déjalo crecer, déjalo partir, y que se aleje, y lo tendrás maduro; porque si lo retienes poseído lo pierdes para siempre.
Si quieres tener el sol y gozar de su luz maravillosa abre los ojos y contempla; porque si los cierras para retener la luz que ya alcanzaste, te quedarás a oscuras.
Si quieres vivir el gozo de tener libérate de la manía de poseer y retener. Goza de la mariposa que revolotea, goza del río que corre huidizo, goza de la flor que se abre cara al cielo; goza teniendo todo y sin poseerlo, retenerlo.
¡Sólo así gozarás de la vida, sabiendo que la tienes sin poseerla, dejándola correr sin retenerla!
