Living in Santa Cruz, I thrive on staying active and connected to nature. You can often find me surfing the waves, hiking through the redwoods, or practicing yoga on the beach. But one of my more unique hobbies is underwater basket weaving—it’s a meditative way to combine my love for the water with my creative side. I also enjoy exploring the local farmers' markets and capturing the beauty of the world around me through photography.
I’m drawn to buildings that have character and soul, like the colorful homes in Santa Cruz and the iconic Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. I also appreciate architecture that feels connected to nature—modern eco-friendly homes and historic structures that tell a story. My love for construction and design comes from growing up in a small village deep in the Amazon, where every building had a purpose and a deep connection to the environment.
As a construction project manager, I love what I do because it allows me to bring ideas to life. My background, growing up in a small Amazonian village, taught me the importance of community and sustainability, and I carry those values into my work. I’m passionate about creating spaces that not only function well but also enhance the lives of those who use them. The thrill of seeing a project come together, combined with the chance to work with diverse teams, keeps me energized every day.
Originally from a small village deep in the Amazon, I’m a vibrant woman now thriving in Santa Cruz as a construction project manager. I balance my days between managing projects, surfing, hiking, and indulging in my unique hobby of underwater basket weaving. With a passion for creativity, community, and sustainability, I’m always on the go, but I never miss a chance to appreciate the little things that make life extraordinary.
