About me
I have a mixed background of Dominican, Puerto Rican, and El Salvadorian. I enjoy exploring and going on adventures. I love beaches and spending quality time with my family like watching movies, playing games, and going to the park. I am the oldest of 6 siblings. Rachel Ray has been a big inspiration when it comes to my passion for Cooking. As a young entrepreneur, I founded Issa Empanada LLC in 2022, which is a small business that operates from my home where I get to be creative and express myself freely. To see more of my creations follow me on Instagram issaempanada.
In 2021, I decided to become a single parent by choice. Being a mother, and more specifically a single mother, is an incredibly rewarding job that I cherish every day. However, after being in an unhealthy relationship for 10 years, I realized that it was time to prioritize my self-care and self-love. Health and wellness have been a crucial part of my journey towards becoming the amazing woman I’ve always wanted to be. By focusing on myself, I’ve been able to change my perspective on many things and finally learn to love myself for who I am. I encourage you all to embrace your journeys and never compare yourselves to others, as the only true competition is with yourself. Be you – Love yourself.
