About Me

I hold a BA in Anthropology and express myself through pictures: I do documentary photography and video. I like to read, listen to music, watch movies and TV shows. I'm currently enrolled in an MFA program in Photography And Related Media in Rochester, NY. I travel (I'm outside around 3 months a year), doing photographic projects and social investigations. I can't live without a cup of coffee.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's a great place to know people who like to travel. People open-minded that enjoy a conversation about places, arts, and an so on.

Interests

I've been doing photography for the last ten years or so. I've done commercial projects, but I don't really like it. I like to do long-term documentary projects that involve my education as Anthropologist, about social issues, race, identities, and migration.
