About
Me.
I like to think of myself as living proof of the immigrant dream. As a Chicano designer who earned a degree in architecture (shoutout to that full-ride scholarship—#grateful), my journey has taken some exciting detours beyond the usual path. Sure, I gained some top-notch skills (and yes, I may have moonwalked across the graduation stage), but the real magic happened when I took a leap into the unknown. It’s in those moments of uncertainty and passion that I found my true creativity and resilience—lessons you can’t learn from any textbook.
​
Along the way, I’ve worn many hats: founding a software company, publishing children’s books, launching multiple brands, hosting a podcast, becoming a mixed media storyteller, and even performing as a backup dancer for groups like the Black Eyed Peas. My career has taken me down many creative paths, expanding my versatility and skill set. I’ve jumped into everything from designing mega-mansion cabins in the mountains equipped with Tesla Powerwalls to developing food catering branding and doing voice-over work. I’ve also teamed up with NBA All-Stars to raise awareness for spinal injuries and gun violence, while guiding musicians’ creative direction and crafting content for corporations. Through all the twists, turns, and lessons, I’ve discovered one thing for sure—there’s no challenge too big when you’re fueled by passion and creativity.
​
Currently, I’m all about living life to the fullest and chasing what lights me up—whether it’s diving into creative design projects, crafting visual stories, cooking up new recipes, or adventuring through nature and travel. This chapter of personal and professional growth has been incredible, and I’m excited for what’s next. I’m open to opportunities that align with my values and vision for the future, where creativity and impact come together. Above all, I’m here to enjoy the ride, wherever it leads!
