Hi there! Thanks for visiting. I’m an arts administrator, sometimes writer, sometimes photographer, born and raised in Queens, NY to Colombian-born parents. I currently live in my native borough with my husband and two children where we can be found listening to records, looking at art, going for long walks, and escaping to the beach.

With almost 20 years of experience in the visual arts field, for the past 15, I have focused on using digital tools and platforms to make the cultural world accessible to a broad audience. In 2022 I assumed the role of Assistant Director of Digital Content at the Whitney Museum where I head digital content strategy and production, website content, social media, digital programs, imaging, video, and content on third-party apps. For eleven years, I was at Public Art Fund, where in my role as Director of Digital Strategies, I oversaw all digital components of the organization, including but not limited to its website, social media platforms, multimedia initiatives including videos and a podcast, and digital archives. During my time at the organization, Public Art fund was invited to participate in exciting social media development opportunities and highlighted for its unique online presence.

My freelance writing mainly focuses on sharing the stories of women making an impact in the creative field and has been featured in Good Company Magazine and The Fold Mag. Previously, I was at the Queens Museum where, among other things, I spearheaded the creation of their social media campaign. I attended SUNY New Paltz where I received a bachelor’s degree in Art Education with a concentration in Photography, followed by Pratt Institute where I received a master’s degree in Arts & Cultural Management. As a teenager, I was lucky to attend NYC's LaGuardia High School for Art & Music & Performing Arts.

In 2018 I ran for and won my local election for a seat on the Queens Democratic County Committee and received an award for Hispanic and Latinx Leadership from the New York City Council. in 2020 and 2022 I was honored to win a seat on the committee again.
