I was born and raised in El Salvador. I have been doing art since I was a child and have always had a passion and interest for the arts. For me every medium has something special in it, which is why I try to paint in a variety of mediums such as oil, watercolor, pastels, acrylics, and more. I love discovering different techniques and learning something new in each one of my paintings. Painting allows me to see and explore the world in detail, and discover an infinity of colors and shapes in the most simple things that surround us in our daily life. 

I received my Bachelors of Art in Art from Central Connecticut State University.  Since graduation I have worked as a Gallery Assistant at CCSU as well as the Managing Director at The Sophie Gallery. In recent years I've worked as an instructor for Sensory Exploratory Art and currently as an Early Childhood Educator.
