Bio

Hi there! I’m Natalia Botero, but I go by Nati. I was born in Miami, FL to Colombian parents, and I moved to Madrid, Spain for high school… but I like to say that home is in my body. Worcester, Massachusetts has been an incredibly formative home for the last five years. In that time, I’ve fostered friendships, explored new landscapes (within me and around me), and most recently, I’ve completed my undergraduate honors thesis to get my degree in Community, Youth, and Education Studies, with a concentration in Comparative Race and Ethnic Studies. I will be moving to Philadelphia, PA, in September 2025, seeking out opportunities to build community and further my passion for the arts and social justice. In my spare time, I love writing letters to my friends, making playlists, and going on long walks, train rides, and bus rides (because I still don’t have my driver’s license)… Thank you for reading and thank you for being!
