Description

Hi there! I’m a passionate visual storyteller — combining my work as a videographer, photographer, and editor with a deep love for cultural exchange. My professional work includes creating short films, documentaries, and social media content that highlights food, culture, and travel. I have studied media production in University, and worked as a videographer and photographer in Hawaii, and various countries around the world. I’m experienced in shooting and editing for platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, and I love helping hosts capture and share their projects with the world.
My creative background also includes being a musician and visual artist with an emphasis in mural painting. I also have a deep passion for immersing myself in new cultures, and especially learning about different religions and spiritual traditions. Over the past decade, I’ve lived and worked across 16 countries.

- Produced Social Media, Videography, & Photography content for hosts, and travel agencies in Italy, Peru, Guatemala.

- Painted murals at a Cambodian orphanage

- Taught Art Classes and mural painting in an Orphanage in India

- Taught English to children in rural Thailand.

- Worked hospitality and reception at hostels in Jerusalem, & Egypt,

I’m Guatemalan, raised in the U.S., and passionate about my Indigenous culture and sharing the wisdom of my Mayan Heritage and Spirituality. I’m adaptable, social, and enthusiastic — equally happy collaborating on creative projects, helping with hospitality, or lending a hand in community work.
If I contact you, it’s because I genuinely want to contribute to your project, not just find a place to stay. I’d love to help bring your vision to life while learning from your culture and community.

💡 Why host me? I bring professional video production skills, an eye for storytelling, a knack for Social Media ( I’ve grown 80K followers with my videos) and the adaptability to work in any environment. If you need stunning visuals to share your project with the world — I can shoot, edit, and deliver them to a professional standard.

More details about my language interests
As a Guatemalan that has grown up in the United States, I've always dreamt of improving my Spanish and being able to speak it with native fluency, as well as connecting with my indigenous roots, by learning Maya dialects. I also have experience teaching English to young children in Thailand.
