I was born in Bogotá, Colombia, where I studied Law and Visual Arts at Javeriana Univesity. I have a Diploma in Children´s Books Illustration at Jorge Tadeo Lozano University (Colombia) and another in Independent Illustration at Seneca College (Canada). I wanted to combine my interest in human beings with my passion about art. After a while working as a lawyer I decided to become a full time illustrator and moved to Canada where I currently live.

I am passionate about life and stories. Everywhere I go I bring my sketchbook and pencils with me to draw what I see. I paint and write since I was a child and I love to imagine new worlds and characters.

In my free time I love to share with my family and friends, walk in nature, practice Yoga and travel to new places.
