As an interdisciplinary scholar, curator, and archivist with a foundation in the humanities and social sciences, I apply postcolonial theory and critical perspectives to my work. By weaving together personal narratives, articulating core values, and honouring diverse ways of knowing, I strive to co-create paradigms that foster meaningful cultural exchanges and support sustainable, equitable livelihoods for communities on society’s margins.
Born and raised in Curaçao—a young island nation navigating the complexities of the Anthropocene—I bring an acute awareness of the transformative potential in addressing issues at the intersection of art, culture, ecology, and identity. My academic, personal, and professional journey has cultivated a deep interest in postcolonial studies, anthropology, sociology, visual culture, archival practices, and Caribbean literature, all of which serve as central themes in my work.
