I am a dancer, choreographer, and interdisciplinary artist who believes in the technology of movement as the threshold toward ancestral wisdom.
My research gravitates between memory and representation in the intersection with dance aesthetics. I am passionate about liberation and very much about messing with the status quo whenever I can. My dances, practice, and training are highly influenced by American choreographer Bill T.Jones and the late Luis Fandiño (Mexico City,1931-2022), among the array of dear friends and mentors across my transnational cultural community between the US and Mexico who have been supporting my dancing to date.
Currently, I am interested in authenticity versus the manufacture of dance-making and about the body as a confluence of biology, biology as in culture.
