My personal journey, starts as a first-generation Dominican-American growing up in New York City. I was diagnosed with chronic depression as a teenager, then an anxiety disorder in my early adulthood. Through these practices, with the deepest gratitude, I have become a well-adapted adult who is in good health, balanced, and devoted to a spiritual path that continuously guides me through love, knowledge, and hope. Shout to all my teachers and guides for assisting me in the alchemy of turning my suffering into wisdom.
Since 2011, I have been professionally committed to supporting others to heal — mind, body, and soul. Love, health, creativity, expression, and abundance are our birthright. I am passionate about activating this energy within us to shine our brilliance and leave our mark in our communities.
In 2022, I founded Upsoul Center, a holistic health and wellness center to connect the amazing community I have cultivated over the years. I look forward to having you be a part of it too!
