Our Story
The Sequence Story begins in El Salvador, the second most dangerous country in the world— where founder and creative director Ariela Suster was born and raised.
Growing up during El Salvador’s Civil War, Ariela and her family experienced violence firsthand and it rocked Ariela to her c ore, but also lit in her a desire to change it. She felt determined to one day influence the sequence of events that keep her coun try— and its people—in violence.
After being introduced to two local artisans, Oscar Bautista and Natali Orellana, Ariela started growing a team of passionate and talented artists that share a vision: that the sequence of events that lead to violence can be disrupted.
