Life is a regenerative community. We just need to realize that we are part of it. Thus, the best of science and the ancestral wisdom of each community can be applied so that life on this planet prospers.

Born in Quito, I lived in Germany and Portugal for over 20 years and now my home and heart are in Puerto Rico, a small fishing community South of Manabí, Ecuador. This is the base of Tierra Nativa.
Consultant in marketing and distribution of agricultural products; I was a consultant for agricultural associations on organic certification and marketing aspects.
Today I use my experience and joy to get involved in the communities and support their processes.
I find balance through yoga and meditation.

Since I was little, my histrionic skills have been expressed in a surprising way, which allowed me to easily reach people through words and emotions.
A skilled communicator by profession, I am able to thrive in any setting. I became involved with Tierra Nativa because it has allowed me to develop my values and respect for Life, without compromising my beliefs.
​
Passionate, I intensely love everything around me, I fight for social justice, and I am moved by contact with the earth. I am proud to be Ecuadorian. I want to let everyone know that I am a free spirit.
Free and eager for everything. I firmly believe in people, I believe in the common good, and I believe that I will leave a legacy whose seeds translate into abundance, happiness, and good life.
