I AM SUPER GLAD TO SEE you HERE
Growing up in Peru, surrounded by dreams born of different realities, I discovered a passion for Photography, Film, and Writing, three arts that defied expectations. Born in a third-world country, my childhood dreams sometimes felt shadowed by societal expectations. The thought of engineering or business, though vital fields, could leave me feeling unfulfilled. Yet, I yearned for artistic expression and a life beyond familiar borders. Navigating my family's hopes and my own aspirations was a delicate dance.
Though some might find it surprising, a child from Peru can dream just as grandly as anyone. Photography and Writing became my brushstrokes, painting possibilities beyond the limits I was told existed. Even amid the realities of a developing nation, I dared to imagine a future filled with self-expression and new horizons, a future where success is measured not just by income, but by the joy of pursuing what you were meant to do.
But I didn't just start writing and shooting one day, I went through many arts in order to find what I really wanted. From playing music with a piano to sculpting with clay, I have tried almost every kind of self-expression there is until I was able to find the path I needed to take.
While the path from a Peruvian child to an artistic dreamier in a new country might seem unusual, it's the kind of journey fueled by hope and determination. The arts, despite external limitations, have the power to ignite a fire within, one that guides us toward a future as unique and vibrant as the colors captured in a photograph, the emotion of a film, and the words on a page.
