About me
I am a Cuban-American artist residing in Jacksonville, Florida. I have a bachelor's degree from the University of North Florida and a Master's degree from the University of Georgia. I have exhibited my work at Manifest Gallery, Marcia Wood Gallery, Era Contemporary Gallery, The Cummer Museum of Arts & Gardens, the S. Dillon Ripley Center, Washington, DC, and most recently at MOCA in Jacksonville, Fl.
In 2011 I was the Grand Prize recipient of Momentum: a National Juried Exhibit for Emerging Artists with Disabilities, and a recipient of The Willson Center Graduate Research Award in 2019.
