I am a proud queer Latina who is the daughter of immigrants. My family is bilingual and multicultural, with a Colombian Mama and Italian Papa who grew up in Argentina.

As a child, my eclectic imagination was boundless. It began with dressing my shampoo bottles with the latest paper towel fashion trends and cat impersonations (I just meowed at people.) That effervescent curiosity ignited my soul. Allowing me to grow a passion for living a creative life with purpose.

At the age of 6, I finally began my journey with vocal and theater training at Neighborhood Playhouse and continued at (NJPAC) New Jersey Performing Arts Center’s Art Education program for Musical Theater. It quickly became a furtive ground for sharing my unique cultural identity through the arts.

At age 17, I was able to be fully immersed in the professional world opening for Grammy Award winning artists such as La India & Ledisi through NJPAC. And the rest is history….
