Embracing My Journey
A Story Unfolded
Born in South America, I journeyed to Australia in my late twenties, seeking soul expansion and a more authentic way of living. Melbourne quickly became my home for eight transformative years.
Despite initial rejections, I landed my first design job within six months of arriving in Australia. As a creator and explorer, I honed my skills at leading design firms, helping brands find their authentic voices and building my portfolio.
My quest for freedom led me to open my own cake business, but its closure marked a turning point. Amidst personal challenges, I found solace in teaching workshops and classes, earning recognition for my craft.
Yet, a subtle voice within grew louder—a call back to design, to help brands tell their stories. Inspired by freedom and nature, I ventured into exhibitions, showcasing my work and connecting with fellow artists.
In 2018, I accepted a lead designer position, only to realize it didn’t align with the inner life of my soul. The struggle at my last job was that I realized I wasn’t fully connecting with my clients—I longed to delve deeper into their personal stories and truly understand their journeys. I yearned for meaningful connections and to feel my work serving a purpose beyond financial gain.
This realization prompted me to embark on a journey of self-discovery through meditation and holistic practices. Along the way, I found inspiration in the desire to serve mindful creators and conscious entrepreneurs.
Embracing spirituality, yoga, meditation, and journaling became my allies, guiding me toward clarity and inner peace on my new path.
“I believe beauty resides everywhere. Even amidst tragedy, there’s liberation—a gentle breath of fresh air inviting us to just be, to look within.”
After leaving my formal job, I launched “Mindful Creativity 101” in Chile, blending mindfulness and art to empower creatives.
The workshop gained recognition, leading to my selection for Her Global Impact 2018, a scholarship program by Singularity University in California, aimed at empowering female entrepreneurs.
I showcased my designs at Surtex in New York, forming valuable connections that led to collaborations in Europe.
Fueled by self-love, I embraced freelancing and a digital nomad lifestyle, eventually settling in Santa Barbara, California, where I found spiritual fulfillment through yoga and breath work, becoming a registered yoga teacher.
“I’ve found true health from the inside out, harnessing my body to embrace my power and femininity.”
In 2020, I arrived in the vibrant city of Barcelona just days before the pandemic swept across the globe, closing borders and reshaping lives.
Originally hailing from the southern tip of Chile, I followed the whispers of my soul to the coastal beauty of Barcelona. Now nestled in a quaint seaside town, I relish in leisurely walks, the embrace of salty air, and savoring matcha lattes at the local coffee shop.
Drawing from years of experience as an artist, designer, and entrepreneur, complemented by a BA in Graphic Design, an MA in Digital Marketing, and a wealth of personal development studies in mindfulness, emotional intelligence, yoga, Reiki, creative visualization, and breath work from around the world—including California, Australia, Chile, and Spain—I offer a deeply rooted expertise.
My vision is to empower mindful creators to discover their unique glow and express their talents through the transformative power of creativity and embodiment.
