About
As a Mexican American with a bachelor's of arts and a minor in Chicana and Chicano Studies from San Jose State University, I bring a unique perspective and a deep commitment. My professional journey and hands-on experience allowed me to develop a well-rounded skill set.
As a Fulfillment Expert at Target, I am accustomed to working in a dynamic, fast-paced environment under tight deadlines within a diverse team while maintaining high operational standards. I possess strong analytical and interpersonal skills that will enable me to collaborate with cross-functional teams effectively.
In my role as a Media Genome Analyst at Katch, I gained valuable insights into what makes films and TV shows resonate with audiences through in-depth content research and analysis. As a member of the Film Production Society Club, I collaborated with a team of 30 to produce a short film over four days, 12 hours each day, demonstrating our dedication by working long hours to create a quality product.
At SJSU Athletics, I honed my editing skills in Adobe Premiere Pro, efficiently incorporating director feedback into men's basketball video. My experience as a Radio Associate at KSKS involved exceptional organization and time management, where I handled assignments such as logline corrections, scriptwriting, and voiceovers.
With over 4,300 views on my YouTube channel, I produce horror, action, and comedy short films, crafting engaging stories that captivate audiences. I meticulously plan shots and angles to enhance visual storytelling and continually refine my editing skills on Adobe Premiere Pro. I have directed actors and cinematographers to bring my vision to life. Additionally, I won a video submission contest as part of the SJSU College of Humanities and Arts.
I am passionate about building a career and seeking comprehensive experience across all areas. I aim to amplify Latinx representation, contributing to a richer, more diverse industry landscape.
