I'm thankful to come from a large family who understands the meaning of community!  My grandfather came to Indianapolis in the 50's and, along with my grandmother (who I'm named after) raised 8 children - 4 of whom joined the military! My grandparents helped found the Hispano/American Education Center, one of the first Hispanic grocery stores, and helped many individuals and families of all backgrounds get settled in Indianapolis.  My family has continued that tradition. (Fun fact - visit the Bicentennial Unity Plaza Mural in downtown Indy to see a picture of my grandfather - top center with the sombrero)

I'm the proud daughter of two US Marines - we settled in Indianapolis during my childhood and I grew up on the East Side of Indy, attending Little Flower, Scecina, and Warren Central.  After some time away, I've come back to my roots and so thankful to be here with my mom, my aunts, uncles, cousins and all of the extended family and friends that have been a part of our journey.

I know how vital it is to settle into the place where memories can be made for years to come and am excited to help you achieve that for your own family!
