Author, playwright, poet, and storyteller. I am a Cuban Canadian artist with 16 years of experience trying to connect with the world through writing art. I believe in the power of stories, in the power of theatre to shape realities. Art is and will be my strategy to defend my triple cultural identity: My identity as an artist, as a Cuban, and as an Afro-descendant. I have published 8 books. My last published book is:
Whispers from the black Gods (Poetry) The Elite Lizzard Publishing Company, Canada, 2022.
Some of my writings also appear in magazines and in more than 20 anthologies from Cuba, Venezuela, Canada, Spain, the United States, Mexico, Germany, and other countries. My theater scripts have been represented by companies from Latin America, Europe, and Canada.
I am a member of several cultural organizations in Canada. Among them we can mention:
SpanicArts, Calgary.
Playwrights Guild of Canada
FAVA (Film and Video Arts Society Alberta)
I was named Calgary's Artist of the Month of December 2021. The recognition was awarded by the Immigrant Council for Arts Innovation (ICAI).
