(2023)

"Chinchorreo Caseño"
(2021)


  • As a practicing writer and visual journalist, I am keenily interested in documenting stories that feel meaningful. I was interested in  immortalizing my family’s traditional Puerto Rican recipes. 
  • One of my grandfather's fondest hobbies is to cook for others. Whilst talking to him about these recipes I was made aware of the similarities present between our passions to serve others, although through incredibly different ways of doing so.
