I am extremely proud to announce that my team's documentary, The Emcees of the MC, has now been officially released. I couldn't be prouder to display the passion that the artists in the county have to offer through the Montgomery Community Media DFI Fellowship with Tiger Maldonado, Ashley Neyra, and Omolemo Kale. I served as lead editor, interviewer, videographer, and more. Please take a look at the documentary through this link: https://lnkd.in/eDcjyKeD And here's an extended trailer:

Our interns have hit the ground running! In just their first few weeks, they’ve been in the studio and out in the field, gaining hands-on experience in both digital and broadcast journalism. With a staff of incredible mentors, they've already grown so much! From stories about transportation to animal shelters, they’re already building the skills and confidence to tell stories that inform and inspire our community. The future of local journalism is in good hands with this group! We are so proud of all their progress so far and can't wait to share all the exciting stories and projects they have in store this semester! #MCMInterns #FutureJournalists #LocalNews #publicmedia

We made a TV documentary! Over the past 12 weeks, I’ve been with the Montgomery Community Media DFI Fellowship, and it’s been an amazing experience. Group projects are never easy, and I normally only work in duos or alone, but actually making something together as a team has been beautiful, and then being able to call them friends afterwards is amazing. I love y'all, (Ashley Neyra, Omolemo Kale, Tiger Maldonado) Our documentary is called the Emcees of the MC: The Underground Music Scene of Montgomery County. We set out to highlight some amazing artists in MoCo and shed light on their history, identities, third spaces, and protests through the arts. This is the first time I’ve really made something bigger than myself. Most of my productions are about my experiences or elements of my life, but this is about my community. Stories, struggles, and dreams of people It comes out on TELEVISION on the 23rd and on Purple Hoodie Productions on the 30th. Please tune in!
