CV

I am an Ecuadorian painter who grew up in New York. Growing up in an artistic family helped inspire my creativity. I studied psychology and studio art with a specialization in drawing and painting from Loyola University Chicago. I currently reside in California with my high school sweetheart and our loving son. My works have been enjoyed by collectors worldwide. I have been honored to be featured on People, Rachael Ray, and published in the Parent Resource Book for Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for Trauma in Schools. I have exhibited my work throughout the country; Newbury Street, Boston, Chicago, IL, Tallahassee, Florida, Kirkland, Washington, and New York.
