TVA is dancing again! En Clave of course!

About Me

Afro-Venezuelan, I'm a tv producer/documentary filmmaker and sometimes a salsa dancer.... I like my tv projects to reflect who I am , where I come from and express the deep pride I feel about my Latin tinge!! Pasos Latinos is my pride and joy, Cuban Pete, Dancing En Clave is the next thing hittin the big screen... Si Dios Quiere! I adore my music en clave and seasoned with content that makes musical sense... To date my best works are my kids, my musician and my artist are my favorite works of art, those children never cease to amaze me. I am truly blessed! Gracias a Dios!
