About Me



Profile courtesy of Free MySpace LayoutsI'm a NY Latina, proud, sweet and incredibly creative. My passion is photography, but im also an artist. I hope to have my pics and paintings up for any and all criticism...as its an affirmation that someone has paid attention!By day, i'm a photo editor for a major Latin magazine.....and i LOVE my job. I get to see all the entertainment gossip before it ever hits the outside world.I'm just a simple girl in a complex world.I've been humbled when visiting family in Ecuador and breathless when i visited family in Puerto Rico. My dream is to see the world in all its glory. And every place as poor as it is, has its rich beauty in its people. There is nothing more beautiful than crow's feet on the old and missing teeth on the young.When we stop to appreciate the things that are not the "norm", then we can find complete beauty in all of God's creations.This is my current work on Buddha.
