In my photography series “Good Neighbors,” I am exploring my Mexican-American experience through a multi-generational lens. I used my family's history and others who were part of an early wave of suburban Latinos in greater Los Angeles to reveal the layered identities of those shaped by the forces of assimilation, post-WWII suburbanization, and a search for a version of the American dream.

Family Album is a series of portraits of family and friends who also identify as multi-generational Mexican-American. I set out to meet and photograph family members and others who share the aspects of my cultural and ethnic identity while bringing visibility to a community that is often associated with a singular narrative. In this work, I am responding to my own insecurities around this constant question within myself of what it means to be Mexican-American. I am using photography as a way to search for a sense of community through a shared history with others.
