I am a native of Cd. Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Spanish, a Minor in Dance, and a Master's Degree in Hispanic Literature. I am a former Spanish teacher at Roanoke College and Hollins University. Dancing is my passion and teaching was my career. I have experienced a variety of dance genres: Ballet Folklorico de Mexico, Latin, Aztec, and Modern dance. Dancing is my third language, Flamenco was an essential element of my life for six years at the University of New Mexico. In 2018 I became an active participant in NuFocus Entertainment becoming a model for NuFocus Fashion in that same year. In April 2018, I was featured in the Valley Business FRONT magazine as a Business owner, stay at home mom, and an Autism Awareness activist. I am in charge of two support groups, (Roanoke Valley Autism Support Group and Grupo de Apoyo a la Comunidad Con Familiares de Diferentes Habilidades). In January of 2020, I started working and volunteering at NuFocus Group, LLC. while developing my home business The Bañuelos Closet Exchange and Beautifully Homemade. I am also an independent consultant of Jafra and Color Street as well as a wellness advocate for DoTerra. This page is to share with all of you my pasions, businesses and projects.

Nací en Cd. Juárez, Chihuahua, Mexico. Me gradué de la Universidad de Nuevo Mexico con un licenciatura en Español con una especialidad en baile y una Maestría en literatura Hispanoamericana. Fui profesora de español en la Secundaria de Salem, El colegio de Roanoke y la Universidad de Hollins. Bailar es mi pasión y enseñar fue mi carrera. Tengo experiencia en los generos de danza Azteca, bailes folkloricos de Mexico, danza moderna así como tambien bailes latinos como Salsa. Veo el baile como un tercer lenguaje, el Flamenco fue una parte esencial de mi vida por seis años en UNM. En 2018 participé con la compañia de entretenimiento NuFocus, en el cuál no solo empecé a bailar nuevamente, pero también fui parte del grupo de modelaje NuFocus Fashion. En Abril del 2018, salí en la revista Valley Business FRONT magazine como una dueña de negocios, ama de casa y activista sobre el autismo. Estoy a cargo de dos grupos de apoyo, (Grupo de apoyo de autismo del valle de Roanoke y Grupo a la comunidad con familiares de diferentes habilidades). En enero del 2020, empecé a trabajar como volunaria en la empresa NuFocus Group, LLC mientras desarrollaba mis negocios El closet de intercambio de los Bañuelos (BCE) así como Hecho en Casa (BH). Soy también una consultora independiente de Jafra y Color Street, como también soy una distruibuidora independiente de productos DoTerra. En esta página quisiera compartir con ustedes mis pasiones, mis negocios y projectos.
