Born in Venezuela to a Colombian mom and a Spanish dad, I grew up immersed in a tapestry of cultures and viewpoints.

As the eldest sister, I learned independence and free thinking early on, inspired by the endless possibilities of my dad’s hardware store and the beauty of Caracas.

After living in Puerto Rico and Chicago, my journey led me to New York – where I discovered a place that truly felt like home. Here, I've pursued my passion for intricate systems, materials, textures, and colors, constantly humbled by the complexity of our world and the incredible people within it.

While my academic path initially took me through the rigors of engineering school, where my analytical mind thrived, my creative soul craved more.

This led me to explore diverse fields such as industrial design, art history, entrepreneurship, philosophy, and negotiation — each enriching my understanding and fueling my thirst for knowledge and creativity.

It was in the world of design where I felt a profound sense of alignment and purpose. My experiences deeply influence my design choices, resulting in a style that feels like a warm hug – authentic, earthy, and timeless.

I find inspiration in movement, whether it's the freedom of running outside, the flow of a yoga practice, or the exhilaration of hanging from the ceilings in a trapeze. I approach each project with intention, ensuring it aligns with my values and passions.

Now, New York is my beloved home, where I am surrounded by a community I cherish and always accompanied by my loyal pup, Rocco, the German Shepherd I impulsively rescued – a story for another day.

Through all of it, the engineering school, the cultures, the cities, I kept coming back to the same question: how do you design something that people actually trust? That question is still what gets me to my desk every morning.
