Ingrid Tatiana - Engineer / Artist / Community Advocate

Author: Israel Ekanem March 23, 2026 Duration: 41:20

Tatiana is a mining engineer by training, a creative by instinct, and a question-asker by nature. She immigrated to Canada from South America as a teenager, carrying with her a spirit of curiosity, deep resilience, and a desire to understand not only herself but, by extension, the people around her.

Along the way, she learned to bridge the worlds of logic and intuition, reconciling a highly analytical mind with spirituality, culture, and creative expression. What began in engineering soon expanded into something far greater: a journey into artistic, entrepreneurial, and community-centred spaces where ideas collide and new narratives are born.

Her work flows from a deeper calling rooted in Spiritual Collective Healing, with a focus on community building, questioning inherited beliefs, and honouring the inherent worth of every human being.

With a quirky, thoughtful, and unapologetically honest voice, Tatiana uses her own privilege to challenge societal expectations, explore shared ancestry, and celebrate African, Caribbean, and Indigenous cultures. Through her presence and practice, she invites others to think deeper, listen closer, and make space for unity, curiosity, and collective growth.
