Growing up surrounded by herbalism and a life rooted in faith, Sarita learned early the importance of nurturing both body and spirit. Inspired by ancestral wellness practices from Peru and Brazil, she founded Sinchi Vida to thoughtfully blend these traditions into the modern world, creating products that honor heritage, mindfulness, and intentional living.

A medical student at USC School of Medicine, Sabina balances her rigorous studies with a holistic approach to life. Passionate about exploring the benefits of both ancestral wellness and modern medicine, she brings a thoughtful, integrative perspective to Sinchi Vida, helping bridge the best of both worlds for mindful living.

To Sarita, her father Elias has always been the family elder, the one who carries an endless well of knowledge about plants, remedies, and the wisdom passed down through generations. His understanding of Peruvian herbalism, inherited from his own ancestors, is the foundation upon which Sinchi Vida stands.

Elias taught his children Quechua, the language of their Inca heritage, along with the stories, values, and traditions that shaped their identity. Sinchi means strong in Quechua, a reminder of the strength he instilled in them. His teachings continue to guide Sarita and Sabina as they blend ancestral insight with modern living. In every way, Elias is the quiet father of Sinchi Vida
