A Bit About Me
I am a Mexican-born artist, writer, recipe developer and content creator, with 20 years of experience in public relations, creative production and event coordination, living in California. ​
​
Back in the 90’s in Puerto Vallarta, I devotedly worked in public relations and photography, working for amazing companies like iPoint, a startup dedicated to technology, the design and development of websites, and e-commerce. I loved working as the Director of New Projects and Marketing for the Conventions and Visitors Bureau of Puerto Vallarta where I produced the first promotional magazine representing the city of Puerto Vallarta in the world. I was also fortunate to become the Public Relations Director of the three Buenaventura Hotels as well as Bay View Grand’s Marketing Director, where I moved into luxury real estate developments.
​
I left Puerto Vallarta in 2001, and moved to Los Angeles, where I finally focused on writing screenplays, yoga training and directing Suddha Prem, a 100% bilingual, bicultural, boutique agency that specializes in promotional professional services and campaign development. Eventually focusing on the study of Permaculture as well as producing and directing COVOLV mini documentaries.
​
Between the years of 2008 and 2015, Suddha Prem developed the BE A CONSCIOUS TRAVELER campaign, producing a collection of the finest retreats, touring eco-luxury and budget conscious experiences and other special events.
Our clients celebrate life in majestic locations within California, Mexico and Costa Rica. Guided by renowned wellness, permaculture, dance, yoga and other spiritual practitioners, our clients enjoy delicious organic and local healthy foods, meditate, journal, and practice under the stars, near a river or an ocean, or visit sacred caves and archaeological sites honoring mother earth.
​
Currently I am finishing the design of my first cookbook memoir "My Mama's Healing Soups", and working and experimenting with photography and AI.
I can't wait to share my art collections and passion for cooking simple mindful plant-based recipes with you.
