ManaSinchi was born from a lifelong love of creativity, culture, and self-expression. From an early age, I found joy in making things with my hands—learning to sew by watching my mother, who refused to buy clothes for my dolls. So, like any determined little girl, I took matters into my own hands—literally. With a needle, thread, and a few sacrificed dresses (to my mom’s dismay), I created tiny outfits, sparking a passion that never faded.

Though my career took me into the world of digital advertising, where I’ve spent 19 years, I’ve always needed a space to nurture my creative curiosities. ManaSinchi is that space—a place where I can share my love for design, celebrate my Latina and Muslim identity, and create meaningful pieces that reflect the beauty of diversity.

At its heart, ManaSinchi is more than just tote bags. It’s about storytelling, representation, and embracing the many layers that make us who we are. I’m happy to have you here and can’t wait to share this journey with you.
