When I left the island,
who knew who I would become?
A child from the motherland,
in a new world, became a man.
Return of the island son.
Fate made in the States.
Faith makes no mistakes.
Pressure creates diamonds
now watch what it takes.
Just let me be great.
Here comes the sun.
Memories cascade,
under waterfalls, I bathe,
washing away old ways,
making way for legendary days.
I have skin in the game.
My spirit can’t be tamed.
I am the flame.
The kingdom has come.
I will never deny the times
when I had to find a ride
walk or run to get to freedom.
Now I fly fully engaged,
ready for the world stage.
Ready or not, here I come.

PARTICIPAINT 🎨
Last night was really special. Everybody let their inner artist come out freely.
Paint was flowing, ideas were alive, and every canvas told a different story.
Moments like this remind us—art isn’t just something you make, it’s something you share.
We had an amazing time.
Can’t wait for the next one.
Date: Thursday, March 26th
Time: 7 PM – 10 PM

Originally on display at FIU North Campus (2022).
This project explored the hidden cost of consumption and the mountains of discarded clothing and the impact waste has on our environment and oceans.

Hey gang, check out my latest installation

I’ve come a long way from one roll of tape and three cans of spray paint.
From temporary walls to permanent structure.
