I am a Dominican-American pianist, keyboardist, improviser, composer, curator and educator from Chicago whose work bridges classical training with contemporary jazz and intercultural experimentation.

After performing classical and jazz repertoire across the United States, the Dominican Republic, France, Spain, Belgium, Puerto Rico, and Mexico, I found a long-term artistic home in improvisation and cross-cultural collaboration. A graduate of the Peabody Conservatory and First Prize Winner of the DePaul University National Concerto Competition for Young Performers, my creative practice has evolved since my early work with the Peabody Improvisers Collective, where I helped develop experimental collaborative programs that shaped my understanding of jazz as a space for dialogue, inquiry, and transformation.
