Miami is my home and because I’ve lived here all my life, I have seen the changes that have transformed this sleepy city into a major international destination for fun and excitement. I have been involved in tourism and hospitality since the 1980s and have organized and led countless domestic and international groups. Locally, I’ve been a tour guide since 1988 and have hosted tens of thousands of guests on my tours. My style of hosting is light, fun and immersive while sharing my knowledge of the area and its culture. When not hosting groups, I’m a landscape photographer and photography instructor. I’m vegan, owner of 3 purebred cats, and still have most of my hair.
I was born and raised in the heart of central Cuba where I learned to appreciate the rich culture and traditions of my homeland. I have been involved in the tourism industry since graduating as a classical flautist and vocalist from the Music Conservatory of Cuba. Interacting with people from all over the world, I was enriched learning from everyone and spreading joy wherever I could. In the last 5 years, I’ve been in Miami and finding joy in the urban nuances and natural beauty of this city. When I'm not giving tours, I continue to work as a music teacher and perform live concerts throughout the city. In my free time, one of my favorite activities is heading to the ocean to soak up the sun. The art of living well is my passion and I feel fortunate in enjoying these activities in Miami.
