Career

Dizon's career began with being an alumna of the Batch 2 of ABS-CBN's Star Magic. She was then cast to be part of the teen-oriented series Gimik (1996–99) as Melanie Suntay, and she would once again reunite with them in 2010 during a series entitled Gimik 2010. Her big break arrived when she played the role as antagonist Sally Perida in Sa Dulo ng Walang Hanggan (2001–03), alongside Claudine Barretto and Carlos Agassi.

After spending several years with ABS-CBN, Dizon transferred to its rival network GMA Network. She starred in several series including Narito ang Puso Ko (2003–04), Agawin Mo Man ang Lahat (2006), Captain Barbell (2006–07), and the original version of Dyesebel (2008).

Dizon then returned to her home network, ABS-CBN, and made a special appearance on the critically acclaimed prime time series, Tayong Dalawa (2009). She won a Best Ensemble Performance in a Television Drama. Her character was then replaced by Jodi Sta. Maria. She then became part of Tanging Yaman (2010), starring with Erich Gonzales, Melissa Ricks, Agot Isidro, Jodi Sta. Maria, and Rowell Santiago. After Tanging Yaman ended, Dizon became part of the remake version of the hit 90s series Mara Clara (1992–97). The series was also titled Mara Clara (2010–11), featuring a whole new cast including new stars Kathryn Bernardo and Julia Montes. Dizon played the role of Susan David, Mara's loving mother who tries to protect her daughter. The role was originally portrayed by Susan Africa.

Shortly after Mara Clara, she starred in the prime time series Budoy (2011–12) as Grace Maniego, Budoy's evil godmother who wants to kill him.

Dizon then was part of the realistic-fiction movie Heneral Luna (2015) and won a Best Supporting Actress for it in 2016.

Dizon then returned to her home network ABS-CBN later in 2015 to star in the critically acclaimed afternoon series Doble Kara (2015–17). This marks the second collaboration between Dizon and Montes, four years after Mara Clara had ended.
