I am a woman of fire, a city dweller with ancestral Mayan roots, and a spectator of the development of the city of Mérida. Known as Sinai, I grew up playing in the streets of my city, a woman who fights because I know that other realities are possible.

I am a mother, and I discovered my activist spirit through mothering. I believe in networks of solidarity and the exchange of care. My drive to improve led me to pursue a degree.

I am an intercultural manager, and I enjoy getting involved in the problems of my community with the desire to provide solutions rooted in nature. A political woman who takes the floor, I am committed, and I enjoy reading. I find joy in arguing my unconventional position and inspiring change if my lived experiences resonate with others.

“I believe in networks of solidarity and care exchange to support and sustain our collective resistance.” Sinai Gómez

I have worked in various spaces that have taught me that enthusiasm and courage are crucial in navigating daily life. I try to stay centred and connect with my emotions, often apologising and embracing my humility. I resist because I am accompanied by other women who join me and strengthen me with their energy. Finally, I am an urban cyclist, a brave person.
