The HumanI am first a human before I am anything else. Well, duh. Of course I am human but what I mean to imply is that I believe in eclecticism. I believe a human is multifaceted and ought to be recognized as such, I am not a teacher, or a wife, or a woman, I am ALL.
I often seek to find different avenues of my identity and enjoy the process of flourishing. I love experiencing new things,loving life with my friends, traveling, eating, dancing in fields, and most definitely, working hard. My goal as a human is to be spiritually centered within myself and in deep intricate connection with my body, my mind, and my soul-- the triad of my identity.

The WifeMeet my beautiful and brilliant husband Cesar! I married Cesar Lopez on February 18, 2017. To this day, I consider marrying him the best decision of my entire life. I high-five myself every time I remember what a great decision I made in marrying this trophy of a man (did I mention he is an Engineer?!). The role of Cesar's wife is my favorite role to play in life.
Cesar and I went to the same high school but never dated (he had long hair then--eek!). Cesar and I began dating only after we both had begun our careers, I was 26, he was 28. We dated for a year and 3 months and got married! We were like, "Why wait? Let's make this legal!" WHAM, BAM, DONE! Cesar is my family, and I love him!

The AthleteAnother aspect of me that not too many are privy to (although it really is not a secret) is my deep love and respect for the human body. I consider myself an athlete and have competed in NPC body building competitions, participated in Fitness photo-shoots and even tried out for Ms. California (it wasn't my thing). I love fitness and it is a part of my eclectic persona.
Fitness has taught me to be disciplined and goal oriented. It gives me focus, balance, and conditioning for difficult times. I practice yoga, weight training, running, spinning, and Pilates. My workout of choice has always primarily been weight-lifting because I know it will prepare me best for a show. I love the feeling of stepping onto the stage and performing for a critical audience. Challenges drive me, plus, fitness is a fundamental part of my personal relationships.
