Vitalia grew up in Lima, Peru and immigrated to the United States in 1995! She works full-time at a local hospital but supports Treecup as much as possible with her free time. Vitalia loves the beauty of the outdoors - she's always been an avid gardener.  A tea drinker through and through, Vitalia's tasty teas and foods inspired Mark to pursue his interest in holistic healing food & drink.

Vitalia dedicated her life to Jesus Christ as a young lady. Ever since, she's been filled with the Holy Spirit and is an incredible mother/wife to her family.
