Tsaitami Duchicela (they/them, él o elle) is a Neurodivergent, Nonbinary, Transgender, Two-Spirit descendant of the Inka-Puruhá people of Ecuador and Afro-Indigenous Panamanian heritage. A migrant to the so-called U.S. from Ecuador since age 18, Tsaitami has over 25 years of experience in the multidisciplinary arts and local theater. Adjacent to their artistry, they are a spiritual health facilitator, primarily centering Queer, Trans, Black, Indigenous, & marginalized folks based on pan-Indigenous medicine and wisdom. Tsaitami is also an educator on equitable, diverse, inclusive representation and resource accessibility, and a steward of pan-Indigenous cultural heritage. Tsaitami currently focuses on being an independent drag, performance and multimedia artist, and overall creating artwork that facilitates re-indigenization and systemic liberation.
