Systems, Stories, and Shipping

My mom, dad, and sister (my favorite human) are all designers, each in a different modality. I grew up in a house where everything was a creative prompt. It brewed in me a systems brain and a curious heart
— why I’ve felt at home in product for so long.

My journey hasn’t been linear, but it's given me a strong instinct for how to connect people, processes, and outcomes. I love solving at the seams—where product meets operations, design meets sales, and strategy meets what’s actually happening on the ground.

I’ve been on the front lines, written the playbooks, hired, fired, shipped, and rebuilt. I’ve led zero-to-one launches, redesigned legacy tools, and helped teams navigate the messy middle. From hospitality to education, from a napkin doodle to the 10 millionth user—I know what it takes to build something useful, usable, and worth sustaining.

About Me

I was born and raised in Peru. I roll pasta, I make jewelry, I photograph, I teach yoga, I write. My hands are often discovering new mediums, and I am frequently seeking perspectives unlike my own. I coach and facilitate workshops in the realms of intimacy and relating, holding space for asking big life questions and unearthing stories from the body.
I also make spreadsheets for everything in my life.

I spent the last 5 years living nomadically and am happy to be nesting in Austin, TX now. I also enjoy eating said pasta - with good wine.

Maybe one day we’ll meet sea-side, surrounded by a language we don’t speak - at golden hour. Until then, perhaps it starts in my DMs?
