From taking center stage as an actor or singer to working behind the scenes as a scenographer or creative installer, this South Florida-born artist is known for bringing a wealth of creativity and dedication to her work. As leader of the soul music project, Vanya and The Bandoh, she writes and performs original music at live music venues around the country.
Informed by her years as a performer, Vanya’s design focus is large and small-scale productions that connect audiences to the art/artist/product. She completed her Associate's in Architecture from Miami Dade College and is currently an Interdisciplinary Studies major, minoring in Art at Florida International University.
EDUCATIONAL GOALS
The experience I’ve garnered in art and design prepares me to meet the creative and production needs of live events, exhibitions, live music tours, installations, organizations, and editorial projects.
My BA and MA studies are purposed to develop my proficiency in art, design, and administration; centered around the pursuit of knowledge necessary to include projects related to fiscal policy, grants administration, facilities, and public programming. Working in production and liaison roles, I intend to collaborate with grassroots and federal institutions to spearhead arts enterprises for public consumption.
Looking ahead, the pursuit of my Ph.D. in global policy serves as a strategic effort to expand the scope of my work internationally. I intend to work as an ambassador for the arts, navigating the global private sector and engaging in consulting, implementation, and funding initiatives that transcend borders.
