“A Very Brief Introduction to “I"'. Who is I?... I am a daughter. I am a friend. I am a lover. I am woman. I am a fighter. I am an artist. I am human... Am I nothing more than a compilation of cells infused with a consciousness that allows me to know right from wrong, reality from illusion? I'd like to think of myself as a consciousness housed in a temporary physical form. Whatever the case may be, I am me, and that is all that I can offer. Philosophy Major, minor in Studio Arts and an interest in Latin America and the Caribbean. Teacher, activist, yet I remain a lifelong learner. Devoted to the mission of Multicultural Affairs. This blog is intended to track my progress in an upper level photography course taken while enrolled as a student at Rollins College. I invite you to join me as I explore this medium and its power to raise awareness and promote social, political and personal change.

Bienvenido!

I am happy to inform that I will begin working on a collaboration with the Hope CommUnity Center (refered to as Hope CC, for the purpose of this blog) in Apopka, Florida over the course of the next semester. My progress on the independent project that I will be working on for Photo II will be recorded in this blog. I am very excited to learn more about this amazing organization and to find out about their efforts to raise awareness within the community. Through my work, I hope to capture the individual stories of the people that are served by the Hope CC.
-This mural was commissioned by the Crealde School of Art in collaboration with the youth at Hope CC.
