Her work, infused with themes of female empowerment, sexual identity, and social justice, has paved the way for groundbreaking contributions to the world of flamenco.

Her most recent production, "Mujeres," was highlighted by an all-female cast and a collaboration with acclaimed guitarist and composer Antonia Jiménez.
With a rich background in ballet, modern, jazz, and percussive studies, Xianix has studied flamenco under master artists in New York and Spain. Her performances on prestigious stages like The Joyce Theater and Lincoln Center have seen her share the limelight with legends like Isabel Bayón and Juan Ogalla.
Notable accolades include a scholarship to the Flamenco Program at Jacob's Pillow, an Artist in Residence with Flamenco Vivo Carlota Santana, and a nomination for a Bessie Award for her role in "Latido."
