Liz, a first-generation Mexican-American, a dedicated parent of two toddlers, and a working Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA), is the creative force behind 'Spanish with Liz,' a YouTube channel that engages babies and toddlers in an immersive Spanish language learning experience.

Liz received her Bachelor’s of Science in Nursing degree from the University of Texas in El Paso, a border city located next to Ciudad Juárez known for its rich Mexican influence. She has participated in multiple medical mission trips, including ones to Peru, Mexico, and Honduras, where she advocated for the Spanish-speaking community and provided care and education to both the local residents and staff. She received her Master’s of Science in Anesthesia from the University of Loma Linda and currently works as a CRNA, providing anesthesia to her local community in San Diego, California.

Liz's mission is to advocate for and empower parents who seek to foster bilingualism in their children and introduce them to the Spanish language. Her channel, filled with songs, captivating visuals, and clear phonetics, has garnered over 13k subscribers and half a million views in under three months—a testament to the demand for impactful education.
