Ana Lorena Pérez Rolando was born in Guayaquil, Ecuador and moved to Vancouver, Canada in 2014. Back in Ecuador, she obtained degrees in Clinical Psychology and Family Therapy and focused her professional experience in the field of Educational Counselling. As soon as she came to Canada with her family, Ana Lorena started volunteering in different programs that supported Spanish speaking families with young kids. The experiences of “reinventing herself” because of migration, plus the motherhood, awoke a strong playful spirit that took her to a new path. In 2016, together with a partner, she started a children’s entertainment initiative called “Cacatúa” focused on puppetry and Latin American Culture promotion. Since 2019, she works in a non-profit organization facilitating different family programs in both English and Spanish.
