Summary

While also working on my BA Music Business Degree at the University of Illinois Chicago I am also apart of the Mariachi Fuego at UIC and previously involved in the University Orchestra. I have offered strong background in performance and recording such as a cover by Mariachi Estrellas de Chicago "Space Oddity" by David Bowie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSGleAEelZ8 In my musical artistic career I have been a Vocalist/ background singer for Los Tigres del Nortes Tour. As well as opened for Luis Angel el Flaco with Mariachi Estrellas De Chicago. In my PR experience I have gotten the chance to be able to interview local Chicago artist such as Vanguardia and Banda El Pueblo and have been able to do marketing for the School of Music and Theatre at the University of Illinois Chicago .
