More about me
I am a Brooklyn-based non-binary journalist, experimental media maker, cultural producer and self-taught musician from Chile. My work focuses on the hybrid field of nonfiction and participatory storytelling.
In 2015, I was awarded the National Fund for the Development of the Culture and the Arts Fellowship from the Chilean Government to study filmmaking in the US. Since then, I have worked at various media as a video producer, editor and translator, including the Spanish media El País and Democracy Now! en Español.
I am currently working on my first hybrid multimedia project called Chuecxs and creating sounds for a collaborative music project called Pxalm. In 2018, I received the New York Foundation for the Arts' “Immigrant Artist Mentoring Program: Social Practice” award. I am an MFA candidate in Integrated Media Arts at Hunter College.
This website is a growing directory of people of color who work in audio around the world. You’ll find editors, hosts, writers, producers, sound designers, engineers, project managers, musicians, reporters, and content strategists with varied experience from within the industry and in related fields.
It’s both a place for employers to find POC candidates, and a place where POC can find each other for meetups, collaborations, advice and so on, which means that not everyone you’ll see on here is actively looking for a job.
To our POC family: we see you and we stand with you. Let’s continue to support each other.
If you’re an employer, we need to talk.
*clears throat*
While recruiting diverse candidates is a great first step, it’s not going to be enough if we want the industry to look and sound meaningfully different in the future. Let us be clear: this isn’t about numbers alone. This is about getting the respect that people of color—and people of different faiths, abilities, ages, socioeconomic statuses, educational backgrounds, gender identities, and sexual orientation—deserve. So before you get started, here are the Terms of Service:
I will pay employees a living wage.
I will consider the ways in which my workspace might be hostile to people of color and find concrete ways to support their contributions and wellbeing.
I will continually reflect on how my networks, taste, curiosity, comfort and values are shaped by my race, class, gender, where I grew up, the media I consume, and the fact that we live in a white supremacist culture. This takes time. It will require vulnerability, and a commitment to ongoing learning.
I understand that this directory is not ZipRecruiter, and that expanding my hiring practices requires that I dedicate some time to engaging with potential candidates in a deeper way than simply scanning their years of industry experience.
