    Fun Facts

    I grew up in Mexico until the age of 14 years old my family moved to the US and settled in Washington State. I learned English in one year as I was eager to connect with classmates, and teammates in my soccer team. Then at age 17 my family relocated to South Texas, where I continued my education and built my family. Eventually, in 2015 I relocated with my children to North Texas, and we love this community, full of cultural diversity, business, and educational opportunities.

    I love life, reading, researching, taking walks, spending time with family and friends. I also enjoy quiet introspection. My husband is my person and we love going to museums, traveling, training our hunting dogs, and discovering new activities. We share a busy “blended-family” life with our 5 children and pets!
