Summary
A dedicated entrepreneur and community advocate, I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Florida International University, earning Dean’s List honors multiple times. As the Founder of LA10 Media, I have worked with companies of all sizes, including Keurig Dr Pepper and McDonald's, to help them authentically connect with Spanish-speaking audiences through culturally resonant campaigns and media content. As the Co-Founder of the Miami Virtual Museum, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, I have led initiatives to make history accessible through virtual reality exhibitions, documentaries, and interactive storytelling, fostering community engagement and education. Passionate about empowering underrepresented communities, I have worked to bridge the gap between culture, media, and education, ensuring that history, art, and brand messaging reach diverse audiences in a meaningful way. Now, I look forward to applying my skills in the legal field to continue advocating for accessibility, inclusion, and impactful change.
