The daughter of distinguished theater actors Ángel Lattus and Teresa Ramos, Paola Lattus began to develop her theatrical career at age 11 in the Theater Company of the University of Antofagasta, participating in a dozen plays, in addition to the Harlequin Theater Company, founded by her own mother in the same city.

In 2000 she entered the Fernando González Acting School. After graduating, she organized summer workshops for teenagers at the Harlequin Theater Company, in which she tried to convey the importance of theater as a reflection on the social environment. She has also conducted acting classes at the University of Chile and University UCINF, among others.

She began her film career in 2008 in the Pablo Larraín drama Tony Manero. The following year, she received an APES [es] Award for Best Supporting Actress for her work in Optical Illusions (2009) by Cristián Jiménez.[2] She was also nominated for a Pedro Sienna Award for the same film.[3]
