Maria is also a proud mom to 5-year-old Celine, a vibrant and creative girly-girl who adores makeup, fashion, art, cats, and ballet. Together, they enjoy spending time creating art, practicing yoga, and visiting the park to feed the ducks. In her free time, Maria loves attending church and participating in women's support groups, where she finds strength and encouragement. With her strong determination and love for her daughter, Maria is excited to create a warm, welcoming home and work toward a bright future for her and Celine.
