I’m just a girl who’s been blessed to share my lifelong love of salsa dance with communities in Boston and around the world. And I’m the proud, queer daughter of Mexican immigrants living at the intersection of multiple identities.
A childhood spent consuming books and dancing at quinceañeras landed this Chicana at MIT, where I studied business and co-founded my first Afro-Latin dance and music company, Masacote Entertainment, with Joel Massicot. Today, it is one of the most influential performance groups in the salsa industry, receiving the 2014 SBA’s MA Minority-Owned Business of the Year Award.
In 2019, I branched off as a solo artist and founded Dance to Power, an online Afro-Latin dance academy. Whether I’m performing, teaching, speaking, or curating events, my goal is to bring cross-cultural communities together and spark conversations through the arts.
Mami taught me hard work and access to education were my pathways to success. But success is only as fun as the journey we share with the world.
