Maitreyi Villamán Matos is an accomplished poet, playwright, choreographer, theatre director and producer, born in Dominican Republic and educated in Puerto Rico. In 1980 Maitreyi founded the non-for profit Centro Creativo-Experimental Inarú.

To promote and nurture the love of poetry, Maitreyi conducts her signature workshops Tú Eres Poeta(c) - You are a Poet- designed to teach and engage participants from any walk of life to express their poetic voices. The poems written on these workshops are then published as a collection tittled Tú Eres Poeta.
