My art career began in 2016 after many years in the corporate world, where I worked in leadership for a Fortune 500 company in Minnesota. Being Cuban-born and raised within two cultures deeply influences how I experience color, rhythm, and emotion. Travel has always been a constant in my life, and over time, the textures and moods of different places drew me toward creative expression. What started as a personal exploration evolved into a full-time pursuit — painting allows me to translate my experiences into abstract form, capturing the movement, memory, and atmosphere of the places that have shaped me.
