My name is pronounced like the letters C-L-O. Cielo means sky or heaven in Spanish.

I am half Mexican and half Caucasian (German, Irish, Scottish). Born and raised in California, I grew up in the San Gabriel Valley and the Central Coast. I earned a BA in Studio Art with an emphasis in Photography from UC Santa Barbara.


My family lives in the beautiful Southern California city of Long Beach.  Assistant Number 1 (our eldest) is attending college at Cal Poly SLO.  Assistant Number 2 (our youngest) will graduate from High School in June. Mr. Roth is an Audio Mixer. Additional family members are our cats, Scotty and Mo.
