I'm a reporter, editor, and audio producer based in Los Angeles, California.

​

I write often about the experience of immigrating to the U.S. and am passionate about representing my family, friends, and neighbors in all their richness and complexity. I report these stories for several outlets, including The Guardian.

​

I'm also a seasoned audio producer and editor. I edited the first season of 100 Latina Birthdays, an audio documentary series about Latina health in the U.S. This was while overseeing daily operations at LWC Studios, an independent podcasting company. I reported and produced content for hit interview shows as well as original narrative podcasts about school lunch, reparations, and criminal justice. With my political science background, I was able to write and edit scripts for clients like Penn State University and Aspen Institute.

​

Since 2022, I've been reporting more regularly about people's experiences at the San Diego-Tijuana border. I'm leading an investigation for Feet in 2 Worlds and WNYC on Spanish-language media ahead of the 2024 election.

 

I consult for foundations that study the state of journalism and how to fund meaningful projects, and I also talk with institutions looking to launch podcasts. I speak regularly at conferences in my role as a leading Latina audio producer.

 

A few other things I'm proud of: in 2017, I put the spotlight on Disneyland workers struggling with low wages and homelessness, and my enterprise reporting in 2020 uncovered a Covid-19 outbreak among garment workers in downtown Los Angeles.

I also worked as a producer at Slate, Marketplace, and KCRW.
