About

I'm an Ecuadorian-American painter, illustrator, behavioral economics enthusiast, social justice advocate, data geek, daughter of an immigrant, Newarker, and bad ass over achiever.

Fun Facts About Me

Passionate social change agent by day. Social justice artist by night.

Not all of us are just one thing. If you're like me, you've got a strong left AND right brain. While I've got a meaningful 9-5 job, I'm still an artist and social justice advocate at heart. My purpose is to promote a more just society that promotes social and economic justice for all.
