about me

Originally from Ciudad Bolivar, Venezuela. I moved to the United States in order to gain more cultural experiences and a better education. After graduating from West Virginia University with a BFA in Graphic
Design I decided to persue further conceptual and theoretical understandings in order to gain broader aspect and ideas to enhance my work in the context of cultural
and social concerns. For the reasons,
I decided to study Graphic Design at the graduate level at the University
of Florida in 2003.

In the summer of 2005 I recieved
my MFA degree with an emphasis
in Graphic Design. My MFA creative project integrate ethnographic methods, design processes, and cultural theory to explore and document observations on identity
and everyday life.
