I was born in Bogotá, Colombia in 1990, in a home filled with creativity and craftsmanship. My parents ran a ceramics factory that celebrated Colombian culture and folklore, and I grew up surrounded by clay, color, and possibility. From a young age, I sculpted figurines and painted them, encouraged by my father’s love for art, music, and history. Weekends often meant museum visits and music recitals — experiences that shaped how I see the world and taught me that objects can always be transformed and improved.

Coming to Canada

In 2003, my family arrived in Canada as refugees. Leaving behind our life and loved ones was difficult, but adapting to a new language and culture opened doors to new experiences and responsibilities. Art remained a constant — a way to stay grounded, to express, and to grow.
In 2011, I graduated from Seneca College with a diploma in Business Administration.
In 2018, I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Architectural Studies from the University of Toronto, specializing in theory and history. 
Since 2019, I’ve been creating more regularly and fulfilling commissions for clients, continuing to refine my craft. Each piece I make is rooted in dedication, shaped by memory, and designed to bring beauty and meaning into everyday life.
