My story
"Music was part of my life from the start."

I'm Mexican and Puerto Rican, born in San Diego and raised in Tijuana. Music was on both sides of my family: parrandas, instruments, me singing with my cousins.

I was on stage with BoriMex Band and already teaching salsa. I've been teaching ever since.

Business and Computer Engineering at San Diego State, and I kept teaching all the way through.

North Carolina! I built a whole corporate career in engineering, account management, and sales and marketing. And I'm a mom of two.

Aura dance studio was mine. It taught me what it really takes to build a dance community, not just classes.

I jumped! Hosting socials, teaching privates, launching UnRitmo. Entrepreneurship is a love-hate relationship, but I wouldn't change it for the world.
"Dance is a lifelong hobby, something you can carry with you every single day, anywhere in the world."
