I have recently accepted a new position at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts in Winston-Salem, North Carolina to begin September of 2008. This is a full-time position requiring me and my emergent family to move from our home in Puerto Rico. This is an exciting new opportunity giving me the chance to teach in a supportive environment, one that strongly encourages its faculty to perform. I look forward to working and performing with the exceptional world-class faculty at UNCSA.

Leaving Puerto Rico was a difficult decision as my work with the symphony and the conservatory was extremely rewarding. We will greatly miss our dear friends and colleagues and the beautiful island we called home for 4 1/2 years.
