I’m a professional musician of Taino descent with 34 years of experience on the stage and more experience than that, practicing Caney Spirituality. I am the manager, booking agent, and leader of two bands. I have written and edited grant applications that have yielded over $24,000 to create multidisciplinary cultural performances that taught Caribbean history and culture. I also teach my Caribbean techniques of music and dance to students of all ages and I am quite proud of all my students. My music and art has been the focus of my life and as I continue to share my art with the people, the Caney teachings of my family and my ancestors remain at the heart of my spirituality, ritual, and belief.
