Mateo is the bassist for Arturo O’Farrill’s “Legacies” album recorded on Blue Note records and on the PBS television show “NEXT at the Kennedy Center”, as a featured artist introduced as Christian McBride’s protege.
She has performed with musicians such as Regina Carter, Geoffrey Keezer, Matthew Whitaker, Carl Allen, Steve Wilson, Fay Victor, and Brandee Younger. She holds a jazz degree from the esteemed Michigan State University (2020) and a Master’s degree from the Berklee Global Jazz Institute (2021).
