I’m an American artist of Peruvian/Filipino descent born and raised in Washington, D.C.

While living there I taught in the high school studio art department at Georgetown Day School, worked as a manager and director for the 9:30 Club, and performed locally and regionally as a musician with various groups. I’ve also spent much of my life in Aix-en-Provence, France, where I studied painting and drawing on-and-off since 2009, and earned my M.F.A. degree from the Marchutz School of Fine Arts in 2020.

I aspire to a career of teaching art, creativity, and the mental health benefits that come with it ...while traveling the world and painting, of course.
