Yotzin Reyes

Teaching Artist Assistant-in-Training

Yotzin is a graduate of the High School for Media and Communications. He was born and raised in the Bronx, but remains proud of his Mexican heritage. His hobbies include playing basketball, bike riding, going to the gym, and playing video games. He is interested in real estate and photography. His hobbies, interests, and culture are important to him because they are his label--it's how he feels he is seen and represented in the world.

Yotzin first worked as a Youth Apprentice for Creative Art Works on the mural "Girl Wonder" at the Louis D. Brandeis High School. Later that summer, he was one of only five YAs chosen to work on the mural "Kalidescope" for the new North American headquarters of BDO. He feels being a part of CAW has expanded his creativity further than he thought it could. He is doing things he didn't know he had the ability to do.
