Artist Biography:
Based in Salt Lake City, I studied painting and drawing at the University of Utah. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Fine Art with an Emphasis in Painting and Drawing, with a Minor in Health.  I'm passionate about visual art and the world of medicine. 

I primarily work with paint and mixed media for 2D artworks. I find inspiration in nature, spirituality, science, and the mundanity of daily life. I use imagery in my work that is inspired by my Mesoamerican Heritage. As a Latina woman, I find it important to use cultural imagery and express my ancestral story. 

​Muralism is a major influence in my artistic language. I am constantly looking at muralists all over the world to gain inspiration and technique. 

My artwork is a constantly evolving stream of consciousness. My preferred mediums to work in are acrylic paint, ink, recycled materials, relief and aerosol paints. 
​
I keep myself busy working full time as Medical Assistant and participating in local art festivals.
