I'M REAL Y'ALL!
I was born and raised in Monterrey, México, where my journey of faith began. I believed in Jesus as a child, but it was at age 14 –during one of the most difficult seasons of my life –that I made a personal decision to follow Him. I gave Him my heart, and I've never looked back.
Through missions work in Monterrey, I met my best friend, Neal. We got married in 2005, and right after our honeymoon, we moved to McKinney, Texas, where we've built our home ever since. Together we’re raising our son Hyan, a passionate 17-year-old athlete, and our creative 21-year-old nephew Nahum, whom we’ve had the joy of welcoming into our family.
In 2006, Neal and I helped launch Christ Fellowship Español, the Spanish Campus of Christ Fellowship McKinney, –and that's where the "One Church Two Languages" vision was born! Over the years, we've served in many roles: leading multicultural Bible studies, preaching in both English and Spanish, coordinating mission trips, and championing a church that reflects the kingdom –multiethnic, multigenerational, and full of life. Neal also serves on the Elder board.
I'm a Propel Women Coach. Through Propel, I've witnessed women from all over the world realize and respond to their God-given potential. It's incredible what God does!
I'm in my third year of a Master of Divinity program at Fuller Theological Seminary. I love learning and growing in my faith so I can help others do the same –with wisdom, humility, and a life that reflects Jesus.
Thank you for stopping by and reading a bit about my story. I truly hope we get to connect soon!
Fun entrepreneurial facts!
Vida Photography
In 2010, just two years after becoming a mom, I launched Vida Photography –a business born out of my love for capturing life's sacred moments, from birth stories to senior portraits. Photography became more than just a creative outlet; it was also a healing journey through my experience with second-degree infertility.
Though I closed the business in 2020 due to the pandemic, the memories I captured— and the friendships I formed— continue to bring me joy. Here are some of my favorite shots!
Konkrete Designs
In 2013, Neal and I co-founded KDK Konkrete Designs, where we create custom concrete pieces that are both functional and beautiful. We love serving our clients with excellence –and part of our mission is giving back to support global missions. Looking for a unique concrete design? Let's connect!
