I was born and raised on the border between Mexico and the United States—a place shaped by movement, struggle, and resilience. My work centers on the human condition in spaces defined by migration, focusing on the stories of those who journey across borders in search of safety, dignity, and a better future.

For over two decades, I’ve documented migration along the U.S.-Mexico border and beyond, capturing the strength and vulnerability of immigrants, refugees, and asylum-seekers. My photography explores not only the dangerous crossings, but also the often-invisible barriers that persist long after arrival—social, political, and emotional landscapes that demand endurance and courage.

Through my lens, I aim to honor the lives of those navigating displacement, and to shed light on the ongoing realities of survival in foreign lands. My work is a testament to their humanity—and a call to see, understand, and remember.
