Marta believed in her personal growth and spirituality and was always striving for a better connection to the universe and the Great Spirit. Making any connection she had with others a spiritual connection. She loved music, art and the pursuit of a higher awareness. She was always open about her journey with others that were eager to find a connection to their own spiritual growth. She lived by example; she walked her talk without hesitation or fear. She was the ultimate peaceful warrior. She walked in beauty and lived life like the Hummingbird; colorful and dainty a symbol of joy, love and healing. All demonstrated by her ability to adapt and rise above the challenges of her own declining health.

Marta was and administrative assistant that held many roles some with very high security classifications for Standford Research Institute.
