Valeria left the banking industry 9 years ago to create Water Thru Skin, a platform with tools and information on sustainable living. Since then, she is recognized as an environmental activist, conscious entrepreneur, public speaker and writer (in both English and Spanish).

In 2022, she co-founded Casa Earth with her husband. A company with the mission of introducing the world to the healing power of nature through retreats and courses focused on slow living, veganism, herbalism, meditative arts and yoga.

She recently made another big change, leaving the fast-paced city life for a small town to immerse herself in herbal medicine, eco-responsible home design, plant-based cooking, organic gardening, yoga and holistic therapies.

She is currently writing a book with HarperCollins about her journey. Her work has achieved media coverage in: Forbes, Vogue, WWD, People, Elle, Telemundo, Ellen Degeneres, El País and many others.
