Born and raised in Puerto Rico, Anthony’s visual style was forged by the vibrant colors and deep, sun-drenched shadows of his home island. His passion for photography and cinema took root in childhood, leading him to attend the Dr. Juan José Osuna high school, which specializes in Radio and Television Production.

This early immersion in the world of communications provided him with a foundation in radio and television as well as film and theater, opening doors to professional work in nationwide television, radio, and film as a member of the illumination department, a cameraman, and a camera director.

Anthony continued to refine his craft through his studies at the University of Puerto Rico, Río Piedras Campus, followed by Valencia College and the University of Central Florida, consistently developing his technical skills within the media industry. Since 2012, he has owned and operated a successful photography and videography business. With nearly nine years at the Walt Disney World Resort and eight years at Tyto Media as a photographer, he sharpened both his artistic eye and his leadership abilities in a world-class professional environment.

Today, Anthony brings his extensive field experience to FIRST Institute, where he shares his lifelong passion for filmmaking, video production, photography, and education with students and colleagues alike.
