From her teenage years, she discovered a deep passion for children and teaching, dedicating herself to developing creative learning strategies for young minds.

Beginnings
Linda's childhood love for Art and Creative Writing led her to embark on an original project, Lindy & Friends, inspired by her family and involvement in the Kid's Ministry. Despite facing professional challenges, she found motivation in her faith, believing in the power of God to turn things around for the good.
