Founder of Orozco Gallery Ithaca 
January 2024 - PRESENT

In January 2024, as I found myself immersed in the world of possibilities, I fervently brainstormed ways to forge new pathways for emerging artists. The desire to create opportunities pulsated within me, yet I yearned for a vessel that would carry this mission without being overshadowed by my personal identity. That's when the concept of Orozco Gallery materialized—an entity poised to radiate opportunities for artists within the enchanting Finger Lakes area.

The name Orozco holds profound significance. It is a manifestation of my other side, an homage to the layers of identity that course through my veins. With each brushstroke of the gallery's existence, I seek to weave a narrative that resonates with the soulful connection to my family and heritage.

As the founder of Orozco Gallery, my vision for 2024 is set ablaze with the determination to curate and host a myriad of events, fostering a dynamic platform for artists to showcase their talents. Through the lens of this one-woman show organization, I aspire to cultivate a space where creativity thrives, where emerging talents find their voices amplified.
