Diana, the co-founder of Melāhuac, comes from a town in the Pacific west coast in Mexico called Mazatlán, in the state of Sinaloa where she lived until she was 18 years old. She was born in Guadalajara, in the state of Jalisco (a region known for agave, the origin of tequila and mezcal), where her mother is from. She grew up among palm trees, by the ocean, under the sun and with her feet in the sand.

In love with Paris - where she has dreamed of living since her first family visit when she was 11 - Diana moved there in 2014 where she met Maxime, her future husband and business partner. He grew up in Nice and now works in Paris in finance and corporate environmental responsibility subjects (CSR).
