Hi there! Thanks for visiting. I'm an arts administrator — sometimes writer, sometimes photographer — born and raised in Queens, New York, to Colombian parents. I still live in my native borough with my husband and two kids, where we can often be found listening to records, looking at art, taking long walks, or escaping to the beach.
I've spent twenty years in the visual arts, helping cultural institutions connect with audiences and tell their stories. Much of my career has centered on digital strategy and content, but my work more broadly sits at the intersection of culture, communication, and access — thinking about how museums and arts organizations can reach wider publics and deepen engagement.
Since 2022, I've been Assistant Director of Digital Content at the Whitney Museum of American Art, where I lead digital content strategy and production across the website, social media, digital programs, imaging, video, multimedia, and content on Bloomberg Connects. Before the Whitney, I spent eleven years at Public Art Fund, most recently as Director of Digital Strategies, working across teams to bring large-scale public art projects to audiences in New York and beyond. Earlier in my career, I launched the Queens Museum's first social media initiatives — work that now feels like a lifetime ago in internet years.
In July 2025, I began my term as Board President of ArtTable, a national organization dedicated to advancing women and nonbinary leaders in the visual arts. I joined the board in 2023, after more than a decade as a member. I also write occasionally about women in creative fields, with features in The Fold Mag and Good Company Magazine.
Outside of work, I'm deeply connected to my home city. In 2018, I ran for and was elected to the Queens Democratic County Committee, where I continue to serve, and that same year, I received a Hispanic and Latinx Leadership Award from the New York City Council.
I hold a Master's in Arts and Cultural Management from Pratt Institute and a Bachelor's in Art Education with a concentration in Photography from SUNY New Paltz. My path in the arts started even earlier, at New York City's LaGuardia High School for Music & Art and Performing Arts.
