She views color as a complete sensory experience and uses resin and other materials to experiment with it as a physical manifestation of light on a surface, taking into account how it interacts with the surroundings or space it occupies. She has designed products as well as art installations and sculptures, and her work has been exhibited at design fairs in Mexico City, Los Angeles, and New York.
Gresia spent six years as the creative director and head of production at Mónica Calderón Studio where she developed collections for the brand and special pieces for architects, designers, and artists like David Wiseman, Jorge Pardo, Ezequiel Farca, and Alberto Kalach.

Practical and basic course, perhaps it could be completed with explanations on how to obtain shades and insert objects inside the resin.

The course is very basic, very slow to explain and repetitive, she says that the accumulation of bubbles is inevitable, aha but there are techniques to eliminate them that she does not explain, nor does she tell you how to measure the colors in powders and there are also techniques, she does not explain the gradients and those designs appear on the cover, basically it just tells you how to add color to the resin and for that you better go to YouTube, I have bought more than 10 courses on Domestika and it is the first one that I didn't like.
