A little about me

¡Hola! I’m an Ecuadorian counselor with a kaleidoscope of experiences, fluent in both English and Spanish. Austin, my second home, embraced me during my college years at St. Edward’s University, where I studied Psychology and Interpersonal Communication.

After 2 fulfilling years of teaching 2nd grade math, my heart led me to pursue a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Northwestern University.

When I am not immersing myself in the world of counseling, you’ll likely find me on a yoga mat, or whipping up culinary creations in the kitchen, dreaming about future traveling adventures.
