Born in Bolivia and a proud single mother of four children, three of whom are neurodiverse. My journey has taught me resilience and the importance of community support. I have worked as a fashion designer creating handmade alpaca garments, as well as in modelling, pageantry, sales, quality auditing, and life coaching. I founded Ashford Freeshop to give back to the community, support families, empower people, and promote sustainability through sharing and reusing essential items
