Latina web3 founder builds, supports, and nurtures self-sustaining communities in Costa Rica, aligned with Gitcoin's vision, and has co-founded projects like Cambiatus, Natus, and CofiBlocks.

I am a passionate nerd, regen, plant-lover, latina web3 founder and facilitator. I love building, supporting, nurturing communities that can then fly on their own. And my focus now is on doing this on the most beautiful little corner of this planet: my home country, Costa Rica.

I’m not the best at using Twitter, or X or whatever… but I do my best! a Millennial that tries to go under the radar of social media for personal stuff, but that is fully committed to step out of my comfort zone and be on twitter, and all the spaces if the projects I love require me to do so.

I’m fully aligned with Gitcoin's purpose: “To empower communities to fund their shared needs” and have been contributing to this space since 2018, co-founding projects like Cambiatus, Natus and CofiBlocks, all them supported by the company my husband Ranulfo and I co-founded: Satisfied Vagabonds.

Pura Vida <3
