About
I’m a multimedia journalist born in Cuba, currently based in New York City. I moved to the U.S. in 2016 to pursue a Master's degree in Journalism at the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism, as part of the inaugural class of the Spanish-Language Concentration.
I’ve previously worked as a reporter in Havana, Cuba, and covered several events that shape the new relations between Cuba and the United States. I reported on President Obama’s visit, the reopening of the American embassy in Havana and the Rolling Stones' concert, among other events. While at CUNY, my work is especially focused on minority groups, immigrants, and the role of religion among this diverse Latino communities in New York City. I discovered the story of a Lutheran priest who has adopted 27 minors in an attempt to save them from deportation.
I have also travelled to Israel and the West Bank on a reporting trip during June of 2017.
In the summer of 2017, I settled in California to intern with Emblematic Group, a Virtual, augmented and mixed Realities production company based in Los Angeles.
