Hi. I'm a visual artist and curator based in NYC.  Here's some other info that may be of interest.

 

Bragging rights: 

My work's been shown nationally and internationally, including at El Museo Del Barrio, The Bronx Museum, The Fowler Museum, the Nobel Museum in Stockholm, Sweden and Fundacion Canal in Madrid, Spain.  I've been fortunate to have received numerous awards including the Cintas Fellowship for Cuban and Cuban-American artists and a Pollock-Krasner grant, as well as residencies at Skowhegan; Ucross Foundation; Ragdale Foundation, the Kunstlerhaus in Salzberg, Austria; and the Open Art Residency in Eretria, Greece. My work is in numerous private collections including the Scottsdale Museum of Art and the Frost Art Museum in Miami, FL.

Arts-related stuff:

In addition to my art work, I've curated several exhibitions in the New York City area. Click on the "Curatorial Projects" sectionin the sidebar to learn more about those projects.
When I'm not in my studio, I'm the Director of Community and Curatorial Engagement at a large communications firm. This position combines my love for bringing people together around shared interests and my love of art, as the curator for their in-house gallery and collection. 
Here are other places I can be found online:
  • Check out my work in progress Tumblr for a look at the grist that goes into my creative mill. 
  • The Graffiteur, my other blog, features street art I come across in my travels. 
Other fun facts:

I have a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Maryland at College Park and a Master in Theological Studies from the Harvard Divinity School, focusing on Buddhist Studies. I studied classics of Western literature - the so-called "Great Books Program" - at St. John's College, splitting my undergraduate years between both campuses, Santa Fe, NM and Annapolis, MD. My wanderlust led me to co-author two Let's Go! guidebooks (Washington, DC and Nepal/India). I'm happy to call myself a first-generation American ChinaLatina.
