Me
I’m the daughter of two Latino immigrants, raised between Atlanta, GA and my parents’ native land of Medellin, Colombia. I’ve been an actress for the past 12 years, traveling the world and working in theater and film in Atlanta and on the West Coast. Several years ago I met a couple of artists in the deep, deep south doing astounding environmental and community work. They offered me an internship through a theater and Production Company called Mondo Bizarro based in New Orleans, LA. I figured it was time for a change and made the move to the Big Easy. During my first month of work, my buddy and then supervisor loaned me his camera and asked me to snap photos and take some video to document a story-telling project they where doing at the time, and I was instantly hooked.

Since then it’s become an obsession really, that’s extended my passion for telling stories both in front and behind the camera.
