writer • filmmaker
I am a Colombian writer and filmmaker, based in the United States since 2014, where I completed a Master of Fine Arts at Ohio University with a Fulbright Scholarship. Filmmaking, literature and teaching are my passions.
My work revolves around underserved communities and ordinary people living in little, unknown places. I am interested in marginalized characters in conflict with their environment, stories in which inner action prevails over external action, and dramatic progression comes from accumulation rather than plot. Narrative structures circumscribe the kinds of stories that can be told and limit our understandings of the world to those stories. In my work I aim to explore narratives that allow for access and understanding of different worldviews.
