Rebecca Wynia graduated from Bethel University with a double major in Visual Arts Education and Spanish Education, K-12 licenses. She worked abroad many years, from volunteering and teaching Visual Arts and English language in a drug rehabilitation and children’s home for minors in Northern Mexico, to later teaching Visual Arts and English language and literature in a private school in Switzerland. Her marriage to a Mexican national, undergoing immigration in multiple countries, and leading a multilingual, multicultural family life have highly influenced who she is today as both an individual and an artist.
