FAQs

When did you know you wanted to be an artist?

Ever since I was in kindergarten! 🎨 Throughout the years I’ve taken some crazy classes from welding 👩🏽‍🏭 to yearbook and they all helped me shape my interest in design in the physical and digital world.

What motivates you?

I strive to be a voice that represents Latin American culture and creativity. Growing up, I did not see depictions of female artists from Central America. I aim to represent my culture through graphic design. 🇸🇻

What do you do in your free time?

I love to watch movies and TV shows. My all time favorite is The Walking Dead and yes the zombie apocalypse is my roman empire. 🧟‍♀️ I also enjoy reading a good old-fashioned book. 📖

Do you like photography?

Yes, I specifically fell in love with the process of film photography. I like the patience of waiting for your pictures to develop. It’s nice to not get immediate results, but rather wait and savor the creative process. And it’s a surprise every time! 🎞️
