Susie Jaramillo is an artist, a storyteller, an entrepreneur, and a mom. An eternal student of cultures from around the world, she was born in Venezuela and raised between Caracas and Florida. At seventeen, she moved to New York City to study art at Pratt Institute, where she honed her crafts in painting and printmaking. She now resides in Brooklyn with her husband and two children.
As a kid, she had nightmares frequently until she discovered that she was in control of her dreams. Susie created Skeletina to empower children like her to take control of their fears and be brave.
