I am a passionate and dedicated professional with over 8 years of experience in HIV prevention and community advocacy. My journey in this field has been marked by a commitment to breaking down barriers and creating positive change. I am proud to have led "Hablando Alto," a community education group that fights stigma around HIV and promotes testing, significantly increasing the number of HIV-certified Spanish counselors in our community. As an artistic activist, I harness the power of art to engage, reach out, and activate individuals in the fight for liberation. I have served as a peer support HIV prevention counselor, providing vital support to those in need. Additionally, I had the privilege of serving as President for LOUD Central Florida in 2022-2023, where I continued to champion the causes I am passionate about. My dedication and impact have been recognized through accolades such as the POZ 100 and the Latino Advocate Award, among others, demonstrating my unwavering commitment to making a difference in the lives of those affected by HIV and advocating for social justice. Let's connect and work together to create a world free from stigma and discrimination. #HIVPrevention #CommunityAdvocacy #ArtisticActivism #SocialJustice #LinkedInBio
