Flutura Creative

Alexandra was born and raised along the border in Del Rio, Texas. Growing up in this beautifully blended city with influences of American and Mexican culture allowed her to diversify her dance experience from the young age of three with studio-based lessons to learning the traditional dances from various regions of Mexico through Ballet Folklorico at a local non-profit, La Casa de la Cultura. The exposure to dance at a young age sparked her interest in culture and communication, leading to future studies. 

During her time at TAMU, she was a member of the former pre-professional dance company EmSu. In addition, she studied Eastwest Shin Somatics®, a form of dance movement therapy aimed at expanding creativity and the arts while promoting self-healing. Upon receiving a grant from the TAMU Academy for the Visual and Performing Arts, she attended International Eastwest Somatic Conferences to participate in week-long workshops. She presented lectures based on her award-winning literary paper "Shin Somatics®: An Awakening of the Unconcious Self" and performed choreographic work titled "Converging Pathways," exploring the intersection of our unconscious and conscious self.

Alexandra believes her education in Communication and Visual Arts through Dance at TAMU fostered her innate creativity and allows her to explore ways to create meaningful human-centered experiences. Her approach to dance is holistic, helping dancers connect inward to their human selves and outward to others through their artist selves. She aims to cultivate self-discovery and expressive communication in students through creative movement exploration. She enjoys teaching young dancers who are in formative and expressive stages in their lives. We can all use a little reminder to explore our sense of self through play and the world around us through the lens of childlike wonder. As a lifelong learner, Alexandra looks forward to continuing her Eastwest Shin Somatics® studies to obtain her certification.

Founder & CEO

Growing up in a small border town enriched with culture, my love for food began at a young age by cooking family recipes with my Grandmothers and Mother. During my time spent in a food industry career,  I had the opportunity to become an in-house Food Stylist. In 2016, I completed a  one-week intensive study of Food Styling taught by Delores Custer, the author of Food Styling: The Art of Preparing Food for the Camera. Since then I have had six years of experience styling with a diverse group of food products.
