About Me

I love art and culture. I like to explore the world; It's people, animals, plants and the beauty of its simplicity. I'm currently in pursuit of learning more about my ancester through Danza Azteca and I'm loving it!! My daily goal is creating something and finishing it is always a challenge I'm willing to take. Peace.......................I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.1I am currently participating in an internship with Mexican Solidarity Network call the Alternative Economy Program. The Mexico Solidarity Network's Alternative Economy Program is built around principles of justice and the search for genuine alternatives to the predominant capitalist model. The Mexico Solidarity Network connects Zapatista cooperatives that produce artisanry and coffee with interns located throughout the United States. Interns receive training in the principles of alternative economy, then set up tables displaying cooperative-produced goods in public places. Interns act as the link between producers and consumers, revealing the human face behind production. Interns may accept donations for the cooperative-produced goods, but there are no set prices. The exchange is based on a genuine link between consumers and producers based on knowledge and mutual respect. For more information on the Alternative Economy Program, contact the Mexico Solidarity Network at [email protected], or call 773-583-7728. You can find my booth at local events and festival. You can also find it at Stir It up Coffee Shop check http://www.myspace.com/stiritupcoffee. If you are interested in having a booth set up at one of your events you can contact me at [email protected] or here through my space. Por paz y armonia
