About

I’m a journalist turned podcast and video producer and editor, specializing in strategic, story-driven content for media brands and purpose-led organizations.

For over a decade, I’ve worked across journalism, political communications, and branded storytelling, producing investigative podcasts, documentary-style videos, and YouTube content that not only informs but also grows audiences.

As a producer and editor of podcasts and video content at Rapaport Media, our team’s strategy tripled YouTube subscribers in 14 months.

Previously, I:
• Produced award-winning narrative podcasts at Furor Podcast
• Led investigative podcast productions at Chicas Poderosas (recognized by Fundación Gabo and Fundación Roche)
• Created documentary-style public policy content for Argentina’s Social Development Ministry

My expertise combines:
✔ Editorial strategy
✔ Scriptwriting & narrative structure
✔ Audio & video production (Adobe Suite, DaVinci, Descript)
✔ YouTube growth strategy
✔ Field recording & documentary production

I come from editorial, which means I understand narrative and audience attention. I’m eager to apply that to a performance/commercial context, bringing a journalist’s rigor and a strategist’s mindset to every project.
