I was born in Costa Rica and moved to the United States with my family when I was 12, settling in Central Florida. Growing up, I witnessed my parents’ hard work and sacrifices to create a better life for us, which instilled in me a deep appreciation for perseverance and ambition. My first job in the food and beverage industry at 15 taught me the value of genuine connections and set the foundation for my people-oriented career. Over the years, I’ve carried this focus on relationships into every endeavor, including co-owning businesses with my husband, Luciano, such as an Amazon store and a trucking and logistics company. Together, we’ve embraced entrepreneurship as a path to achieving the American Dream and creating opportunities for others.
My journey into finance was inspired by my parents’ lessons on saving and my realization that building true wealth requires more than just discipline—it requires strategy. This led me to join Northwestern Mutual in 2021, where I’ve dedicated myself to helping individuals and families take control of their financial futures. Whether it’s guiding clients toward their dreams or elevating my community through charitable involvement, my mission is to make financial planning approachable and empowering.
