Biography
She was born in Puerto Escondido, in the Costa Chica region of Oaxaca state. From a very young age she showed interest in music and dance, especially the sounds and Chilean coasts by Guerrero and Oaxaca. At the age of 15 years she began studying contemporary song and dance at the School of Fine Arts of Oaxaca.
In 2000, she traveled to Paris, France, to enter the 12th Paris Conservatory of Music as a teacher taking Madame Sulle. On her return to Mexico enrolled in the School of Music at the Universidad Veracruzana and majored in Opera. This allowed her to take classes with teachers Benito Navarro (tenor), Guadalupe Colorado (soprano), Cecilia Ladron de Guevara (mezzo-soprano), and Victor Manuel Filobello (tenor), with whom she continues to study classical singing, while taking classes in African dance and tap dance classes with the teacher Rubi Oseguera.
In 2012, she performed alongside the traditional Colombian group, Los Gaiteros de San Jacinto on the Vancouver Folk Music Festival. She also performed in a Jam session with Wazimbo, and Sidi Toure.
