Introduction	My biggest passion is Education. I am Argentinean. Born in Buenos Aires in 1973, three years prior to the military coup that ended in 1983. This was a tremendously turbulent political time for my country. I grew up surrounded by violence, closing our window blinds in fear, while listening to street shootings. Left my country at the age of 25 in order to recreate myself and my own history. Originally moved to NYC and lived there for 10 years. My professional career went from Media Production and Post- Production to Arts in Education Non-profit Management. Yes, a perfect process. I worked first as studio camera operator, then as a video editor for commercials, then as I got my MFA,- wonderful program called Integrated Media Arts- I realized that I wanted to work in education. Started as a video teaching artist working at Urban Arts Partnership www.urbanarts.org and I ended up being their Program Director, we served 57 underprivileged public schools. I use technology to explore, teach and expand our knowledge about our relationship with ourselves, our class community, our neighborhood, our families, the world!
