Celebrating Animals & Artisans in Mexican Culture

Born and raised in NYC to loving parents, an opera singer and portrait painter, and little sister to an artist and singer, on the beautiful Upper West Side right off Central Park, my big backyard, and educated at wonderful schools, I have lived a life surrounded by animals, art, music, theater, dance, science, great food and wine, and travel, and a sincere appreciation for all things vintage, antique and handcrafted.

For my first career, I was professional voiceover actor and singer for 2 decades, having starred in 30+ national TV commercials and voiced 1000s of voiceovers for TV and radio, corporate and medical narrations, e-learning courses and phone systems.

For my second career, I was the sole vet tech for one of the leading veterinary house call practices in NYC for 2 years before moving myself and my 8 furry kids to Kanab, in gorgeous southern Utah, amidst many national parks like Zion, Bryce and Grand Canyon, where I was the first 4-month intern in Cats and then vet tech for rabbits, cats and dogs in the Veterinary Clinic at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, the largest no-kill domestic animal sanctuary in the USA.

Also in Kanab, my wonderful husband Ron and I performed as one of the premiere musical duos in Southern Utah. Our wedding celebration was adorned with Otomí embroidery, our dogs and bunny donned ponchos, our Mariachi ensemble performed traditional Mexican songs, and our chef filled our guests' bellies with freshly prepared Mexican street tacos, antojitos. I have had a long distance love affair with Mexico for many moons.

Living now in beautiful San Miguel de Allende in Central Mexico, I have a unique opportunity to curate and share with the world one-of-a-kind arts and crafts from talented Mexican artisans I meet. As a loving animal mom, welfare advocate and veterinary nurse, my shop celebrates animals in Mexican culture. I ethically source handcrafted artworks using free-trade practices to support local artisans in their way of life, and I contribute to the protection of animals locally through giving 10% of my proceeds to the Sociedad Protectora de Animales (SPA), the oldest no-kill cat and dog shelter and adoption center with a low-cost veterinary clinic in San Miguel de Allende.

Ron and I are loving parents to 4 furry children - 2 dogs and 2 bunnies, and plan to adopt 2 kitties soon. Our beloved spirit kids together include 4 kitties, 3 dogs, 2 bunnies and 1 horse, who, along with all of our adored animals throughout our lives, will always be with us.

On a personal note, I am compassionate, kind, affectionate, funny, even goofy, and a friend to every person and every animal I meet. I go above and beyond for my customers!

Welcome to my shop!

Con amor de Mexico,
Genevieve
