Ana started her artistic journey in Colombia, earning a Bachelor of Arts and a New Media degree from Andes University. Fascinated by the intersection of art and technology, she pursued digital filmmaking and multimedia upon arriving in New York. She has 15 years of collaborating with sociologists, psychologists, strategists, healers, and creatives, crafting interactive presentations, future-forward research, narratives, educational workshops, events, films, and videos.
In recent years, she has been fully dedicated to her art and therapeutic work. She works primarily with teens or group adults in one-to-one settings or for nonprofit and immigrant organizations. Ana also curates events and art shows and coaches solopreneurs, designers, and artists.
Ana is passionate about blending art, mental health, neurodiversity, and eco-consciousness. She continues participating internationally in art showcases, installations, and performances to foster dialogue and introspection. Her mission is to challenge our human-centered perceptions, consumerism, and mindset with engaged principles, planet equity, and applied creative art.

" I invite everyone to join our collective need in this poly-crisis: to use all our creative power and approaches as well all scientifically proven mind shift techniques and/or ancestral knowledge and practices to move us towards planetary awareness, supporting younger generations for a more conscious, grounded & rooted way of being. As Thich Nhat Hanh's teachings say. Our way out is in"
