A Little Background
There's a wound at some point, and then there's music. But music is also born out of beauty. It's not all tragedy and bombs. In my case, Venezuela's political catastrophe forced me to move out due to a medical and soul-searching emergency. I was dealing with a poorly treated sinus infection that developed into a conundrum of other things. As a result of the government-induced medicine shortage, I had to seek other horizons if I wanted to live—as the doctors urged me.
I had lived in New York before but was too frail to handle all that city's demands, so I decided to move to Los Angeles and stay with an acquaintance. So, the tragedy here is that my country, Venezuela, was hijacked by ideology, tyranny, and corruption, and it's now a world apart from what it used to be and that I seldom got to experience, unfortunately. The beauty comes from the two beautiful artistic parents who raised me and my nine other siblings (10 kids total, I'm number 8. Hi!) and taught me music, faith, and unwavering resilience. And also English.

Why Art/Music? ​
​
With everything happening in the world, it feels heavy right now—though I’m not sure there’s ever been a time it didn’t. Art—music, in my case—often seems insignificant when it comes to "fixing what's broken" or serving a practical purpose. But in truth, art is the glue that brings us together. It sees no color, gender, or political divide; it simply allows us to be—to feel, to connect, to vibrate in oneness. And that’s why I love it.
​
Art may not have a tangible function, but its impact is undeniable. It shifts our energy, elevates our state of being, and reconnects us with our hearts. So, I reject the idea that it has no use. If anything, I believe it’s one of the few things keeping us afloat. More than a creative expression, art is a way of being. For me, music is how I navigate this beautifully chaotic world—a vessel for the soul when words fall short. It’s my offering to those searching for meaning, freedom, or simply a moment to breathe. This isn’t just a passion; it’s the most natural way I know to honor the art of being human.
