Diana was born in Safford, Arizona on January 5, 1980 to Frances (Avalos) and Frank Uribe, an auto mechanic. Diana came from a family of four brothers and three sisters and is the fourth oldest. Born with the love for music and acting passed down through her grandfather Avelino Avalos who played in many bands throughout his life even landing a spot on the Johnny Carson Show, Diana dreamed of becoming a singer. Diana was the first in her family of 8 including both her parents, to complete and graduate high school. At the age of 18, Diana gave birth to her son Elijah (1998) who due to medical malpractice suffered from Cerebral Palsy, later she mothered a daughter, Kiana (1999) and two more sons, Joelle (2002) and Ethan (2006). For the majority of Diana's life she was a single mother but remained inspired and focused on her love for music and acting. Diana begin singing and performing at local county fairs at the age of 6, singing "Cold Hearted Snake" (Paula Abdul) with her older sister Marlena and her older cousin Michelle, Diana and her trio placed third, a small but encouraging victory. Diana continued to receive positive feedback from the audience and went on to perform "She's Single Again" (Janie Freckle), "Walking After Midnight" (Patsy Cline), "Hold On" (Wilson Phillips), "Don't Speak" (No Doubt) and many other songs during state, county and city singing battles.
