Jorge Pallo/Marc Molina

Actor
Jorge-Luis, a native of Queens, New York, studied dance from a young age, then earned a BFA from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. After relocating to L.A., he scored a recurring role on Showtime's "Resurrection Blvd.," as well as guest roles on "The Unit," "The Lost Room," "CSI: Miami," and other shows. More recently, he was in the TV movie "The Pledge" with Luke Perry and C. Thomas Howell. And now he's joined "The Secret Life of the American Teenager" as hottie counselor Marc Molina.

Jorge's big-screen films include Steven Spielberg's "Minority Report," "War of the Worlds," and the September 2008 blockbuster "Eagle Eye." His stage work includes "Juan & Sooz" (in L.A.) and "Serious Money" and "A Few Good Men" (both in New York). He also teaches acting and is a budding director; his first short film, "Should," was accepted into the L.A. Short Film Festival.

Character
Marc Molina is the hot new counselor in town. Oh, and we do mean hot, because he's certainly been an exciting piece of news among the students ... well, the girls, anyway. But he'd better be prepared for his new role, 'cause handing out condoms is the least of Marc's new duties. Not only does he help Ben with his girlfriend's baby troubles, but he also helps Adrian figure out who her real father is. And then he disappears for a while after that ... hmmm.
