I’m the daughter of migrant parents, born and raised in the vibrant Little Village neighborhood of Chicago. Deeply rooted in my Mexican heritage, I embrace the beauty of my culture and weave it into every aspect of my work. As a mother to a bi-racial daughter, it’s especially important for me to honor and celebrate multiple cultures. My creations personify my love and intention, where blending tra
ditions, stories, and symbols -- reflect the richness of our identities. Chica Construction Crafts began with something simple yet heartfelt—handmade birthday cards for friends and family. Since then, it has grown into a small business where I create custom-made cards and other hand-crafted items. My art is not only a form of personal expression but also a way to honor traditions, celebrate identity, and bring awareness to what’s happening in our communities. I often collaborate with other artists, blending their designs into my creations to celebrate shared stories and diverse voices.
