This November, for the fifth time, I’m stepping up as a poll🗳️ worker because there’s a nationwide shortage, and our democracy needs us all.
As a first-generation 🇺🇸🇩🇴Dominican American, I’m deeply grateful for what this country’s offered my family and I believe that volunteerism is patriotism.
📣 ¡Pa’lante! Let’s do this together.

Fitness Gods, hear my prayer! 🙏🏽
Turning 51 in a few weeks, so I had to test my favorite sequence—what I call the 😅Holy Trinity of Push-Ups:
One-Arm ➡️ Diamond ➡️ Plyo Clap.
Wasn’t sure I still had it… but I do.💪🏾
📣 Age is just a number!
🇺🇸🇩🇴 ¡Pa’lante siempre!

🧵1/2 #HispanicHeritageMonth 👮🏽♂️🚓
✨Tonight was my first time attending the LLEGO Boston Gala—and I left inspired.
🗣️LLEGO #Boston is a volunteer-led group of Boston Latino law enforcement, public safety officers, emergency responders, and community leaders. Now in their 8th year, they continue to strengthen partnerships, mentorship, and trust across Boston’s diverse neighborhoods.
🚑As an EMT-B and a first-generation 🇺🇸🇩🇴Dominican who grew up in Dorchester’s Fields Corner, seeing this commitment…

…hit home.
🤝🏽 Grateful to be one of many who support their mission—and be the change we want to see. Representation matters, and diversity is a strength. This is how we build leadership and empowerment.

❤️ As far back as I can remember, I’ve loved arepa. Whether brought straight from the Dominican Republic or baked by my mother at home, it’s always been more than dessert.
🇩🇴 It’s comfort. It’s culture. It’s connection.
Made with love, steeped in tradition, and always a taste of home.✨

❤️ Empowering Our Community: An afternoon of Life-Saving Skills! ❤️
👏🏽Today was the first free hands-only CPR & Stop the Bleed training at La Alianza Hispana in #Boston. The energy was amazing!
🚑 Inspired by my EMT-B recertification, I’m working to bridge the gap in bystander #CPR rates in underserved communities by connecting them with the Boston EMS #Community Initiative team.
📣Thank you again to Boston EMS and La Alianza Hispana for making this possible!

🇩🇴🇺🇸Today's visit to my mother Millie in #Dorchester (a #Boston neighborhood) meant I wasn't leaving without her amazing homemade tostones, chuletas, and bacalaitos. Feeling loved and well-fed! 😋

💟 Mental Health Matters.
I live with clinical depression. I’ve lost a family member to suicide.
I know how real—and how silent—that pain can be. But help is available.

You never know who might need them.
You are worth it.

In the mid and late 2010s I heard a lot about the dangerous of the "perfect victim" yet that concept has appeared to be absent when discussing the cultural genocide of #Latinos.
We cherry pick the worst of the group as justification for their extermination. You know, just like fascists do.
I want to move away from the idea that Americans simply don't see #Latinos as fully human. Because I know how wildly unpopular it is when I talk about this subject. Last time I did I lost followers. I'll prob lose followers again this time.
But I know how the internet works. One day a prominent figure will call this out, and all the liberals will no longer have plausible deniability and will have to answer for this behavior.
And there it is. Deep down, white liberals believe that #Latinos deserve to be exterminated because there was an uptick in support by white Latinos in south Florida and Texas.
Of course, this completely ignores Biden's participation suffering of Latinos.
