I was originally born in Los Angeles, California and raised in Houston, Texas. Majority of my family lived in San Antonio and we would spend our Summer Vacations with my Tia & Tio’s to help take care of the younger and older family members. I’ve always loved San Antonio, the energy was so different, and I always wanted to be with my cousins because it always felt like a party. We finally moved to San Antonio when I was eleven and we temporarily lived on Fourtuna and 36th with my great Tia & Tio. I went to Truman Middle School and my mom shortly transferred me to Edgewood Fine Arts Academy to ensure that I pursue my true passion, “the arts.” My mom got a job on the Northside and I went to Zachary Middle School, after the move. I continued my pursue for Arts and also decided to take Computer Classes to further my curiosity of knowing how to do everything. In High School I moved onto pursuing Culinary Arts and then won a Gold Metal at State, my Senior year. After I graduated, I went to college for Applied Science and received my Associates. After numerous job titles. I’m currently working at FedEx as an Events Solutions Consultant in San Antonio. I am proud to show what I have been through, to get here, and although it has been overwhelming, it also benefited me in every way.

My creativity expands from multiple mediums that includes painting, graffiti, mosaics, collages, wheat paste, illustration, graphic design, etc. Each one of these mediums allows me to explore different expressions of my creativity, and to offer a unique way of expressing my internal ideas, emotions, and storytelling. Each medium provides a unique approach that allows me to experience the overall idea of what I want the viewer to captivate in the moment.
