Cambrón is the second artist ever selected to create a cover for the Atlanta Business Chronicle’s Book of Lists 2019-2020 with her piece ATL: City of Street Art. In June of 2020, she completed her tallest mural to date, We Give Each Other the World, a community-responsive mural funded by the National Endowment for the Arts and the City of Hapeville. In August of 2020, Cambrón completed her mural Monuments: Atlanta’s Immigrants at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium’s The Home Depot Backyard. 
Cambrón’s first mural was the Education is Liberation Monarch, painted as part of Living Walls’ The BuHi Walk in 2017, which she used as a platform to advocate for the protection of undocumented youth. In 2019, Cambrón was nationally-selected as one of eleven artists for Off the Wall: Atlanta’s Civil Rights and Social Justice Journey, a public art project leading up to Super Bowl LIII organized by WonderRoot and the Atlanta Super Bowl Host Committee, during which she was commissioned to paint three murals. That summer, she was selected as the winner for the Living Walls, The City Speaks’ Laura Patricia Calle Grant with her project Monuments: Our Immigrant Mothers, which she painted in the heart of Decatur, Georgia as a visual affirmation that celebrates immigrant mothers and the intersectionality of the immigrant community. This mural was selected Best Mural in Atlanta by Creative Loafing in 2019.
Cambrón earned a full scholarship from the Goizueta Foundation to attend Agnes Scott College and graduated with a B.A. in Studio Art in 2014. In 2015, Cambrón was accepted into Teach for America (TFA) as a corps member. She become first of two DACAmented educators placed in Georgia by TFA and served on TFA’s DACA Advisory Board for two terms. After completing her TFA commitment as a bilingual elementary school teacher, Cambrón returned to her alma mater, Cross Keys High School, to teach art from 2017-2019. She incorporated her business, Yehimi Cambrón, LLC, in February of 2019 and is currently a full-time artist, activist, and national public speaker.
