SIGN UP FOR THE
REBELLE NEWSLETTER
Stay in the know - our newsletters contain all the latest updates and event information.
Our journey began in late 2015 inside of an automotive battery plant. A great friendship started then and continued to grow even as we moved on to different companies. Fast forward to 2022, the year we were brought back together…thanks to Stryten Energy!
Upon hearing about the Rebelle Rally, I immediately knew I wanted Amanda as my partner. She would be the one and only that could handle and understand me! It’s no different than our work environment where we have to make pretty big decisions that make us uncomfortable on the daily. As the Rally approaches, we are experiencing a whirlwind of emotions—excitement, fear, and nerves—yet we remain determined to embrace the challenge ahead. We are driven by the desire to continuously push our boundaries and challenge ourselves. We see the Rebelle Rally as a chance to gain a new perspective, shake off complacency, and challenge ourselves in ways we never imagined.
Our dynamic is – I am more of the big-picture realist and quest for improvement while Amanda is the attention to detail and pursuit of perfection— we think this makes us a great team and lifelong friends! Through the Rebelle Rally, we aim to not only gain knowledge but also that feeling of accomplishment, stepping far outside of our comfort zones. Our journey is about embracing discomfort and learning to thrive in it, making us stronger together.

I’m a proud Latin girl, who exists at the crossroads of aspiration and determination. There hasn’t been a challenge that I have not surpassed, whether by sheer stubborn grit and / or a lifetime of wisdom. I don’t take myself too seriously and hardly ever freak out! I’m hoping this holds true throughout the rally!

I grew up in Ecuador then moved to Milwaukee, WI as a teenager…going from the equatorial tropics to the midwestern winters! I had never seen a high school locker before…had no clue how to open it and use it for an entire semester! It stayed there for 32 years! GO PACK, GO!
Because my boss said, “Why not now?” In all honesty, I want to prove to myself that I can do this! I turned 50 this year, and I would love to continue to show my kids and grandkids (as well as others) that age is just a number and you can learn how to use a map, navigate, and drive offroad at any age. So, I set the goal of doing the Rebelle Rally this year, and now I am more determined than ever to seeing it through! I am prepared to be comfortable with being uncomfortable!
Making my kids (and grandkids) proud inspires me to continue growing and reaching for the stars!

Leaving WI after 32 years and moving to CA for the possibility of love 5.5 years ago with only my car, my clothes, my avocado peeler, and my peloton! In the last 6 years, I have been introduced to off roading and a whole new lifestyle that I would have never dreamt of before. Had I not taken on this adventure, I would have never known about Rebelle Rally, or even thought I would be capable of doing this! Also…happily married now!
I am an individual constantly in the pursuit of perfection even though perfection exists only as an ideal within oneself; I have a timeless aspiration of striving to be my personal best. Driven by curiosity and the uncomfortable moments in life, I welcome new personal challenges to continue growth and self-improvement. I find solace in nature, spending as much time as I can in the outdoors, with a focus of establishing a similar connection for my toddler son.

I drove my first car when I was 4 years old. Brand new, only 1 week into her new residency before she had the most impactful joyride of her short life. Made friends with trees and a number of mailboxes…sorry mom and dad!
A link to the Rebelle website came to me through a text from Jully at the beginning of 2024…”you in?” Watching the video sent a wave of chills down my spine. The thought that I could be alongside some fierce women, doing things far outside of any experiences to date, created a deep desire I didn’t know existed. The fact that Jully would be my Rebelle partner is what made this new aspiration realistic. It was time to get back to being uncomfortable, so my personal growth can continue.
My parents have always been a foundation of inspiration for me. Their work ethic and drive to support loved ones is unmatched, shaping who I am today. I was raised to not expect life to just hand things to you. You need to work hard for what you want, never settling for mediocrity. You can achieve many great things if you put your mind to something.
Most of my book reading these days including some classics, Llama Lama Red Pajama and The Pout Pout Fish. Being a new mom while working full time there isn’t much available time for watching shows but I do enjoy a good cooking competition or Housewives.
My journey to motherhood has to date been one of my greatest adventures. I never knew such a tiny creature could bring so much joy, fear, and love into my life all at once. Proof that magic does exist in this world. The excitement and emotion I get to experience with him, through his eyes, is a blessing.
