About Me

Personal:

Life is an experience that needs to be enjoyed, and everyday is an opportunity to do something you love. At some point you have to follow you heart and follow your dreams, no matter how crazy it seems.

I had my first brush with graffitti art when I was 13, and I’ve been hooked ever since. Eventually I realized I had the skills to create my own art, so I did. I was lucky enough to pick up a camera a few years later, and combined my two passions: Film Making and Street Art. I figured not only could I do the work myself, but I could help others get their work out to the world. And it has lead me here.

I have big dreams, and big ideas, but if there is one thing I have realized is that no one is going to give you your dreams, you have to go get them.

Professional:

I have five years journalism experience in business, trade and tourism, with additional experience in the small business sector. I previously worked as a journalist for the online news publication dr1.com, covering national and international news relating to the Dominican Republic.

I have a B.A., in International Studies (Concentration in Latin America and the Caribbean) and minors in French and Italian Studies. I was a member of the US Peace Corps, working as an Urban Youth Development volunteer, with additional experience and educational experiences in South Africa, Barbados, Haiti, Italy and Paraguay.

I am fluent in five languages (English, Spanish, Portuguese, French and Italian), with experience in video editing, digital media, content production and development.
