She specializes in crafting delicious, innovative, and visually stunning recipes, always infused with a personal touch.

Born in Acapulco, Guerrero, Michelle relocated to Mexico City for her college studies, where she earned a degree in Communication with a focus on Advertising. Early on, she took the entrepreneurial leap, founding her own marketing agency, which quickly gained success.

While her professional path was rooted in marketing, her love for gastronomy never wavered. Michelle produced significant culinary events, bridging her two passions until a pivotal moment arrived. She decided to take a leap of faith by joining MasterChef Latinos, a decision that forever altered her life. Michelle emerged victorious as the winner of the 2022 season, solidifying her place in the culinary world.

For Michelle, cooking is more than just a career—it’s a way of life. She views herself as a curator of flavors, cultures, and ingredients, honing her palate into one of refined taste and insight. Now, Michelle is preparing to open her own restaurant, Celestine, where she aims to share her culinary vision with the world.
