Experience

  1. Programming Director Talent Coach & Executive Producer

    I believe sound is sacred. Before we were born, we heard voices in the womb—sound was our first human connection. That’s why I believe in the power of radio, not just as a format, but as a spiritual link between talent and audience. My mission is to help creators turn their voices into emotional anchors for communities, not just listeners.I work in the trenches with talent, not from an ivory tower. I coach them live, challenge their storytelling, and celebrate when they grow—because when they win, it’s their face, not mine, on the air. I find joy in watching them rise.Today, I serve as Programming Director and Talent Coach at iHeartMedia Miami, partnering with Enrique Santos on his nationally syndicated Spanish-language morning show and guiding on-air talent across iHeart Latino’s top markets—Miami, Orlando, and beyond.I specialize in helping Spanish-language talent evolve into multiplatform creators—radio, podcasting, video, socials—transforming them into true brand ambassadors.My approach is shaped by a deep sociocultural understanding: being Hispanic in Miami isn’t the same as being Hispanic in the Bronx or East LA. Culture, economy, politics—everything shapes how we speak, feel, and listen. I coach with that in mind.It’s not just about speaking Spanish—many can.It’s about understanding the culture—very few do.And when culture leads, connection follows. What I Do: • Coach and co-develop Enrique Santos’ Spanish-language national show • Elevate talent in Miami and nationwide to connect more deeply and grow audiences • Expand shows into podcasting, video, and branded content • Build systems for performance feedback, content flow, and creative innovation • Help transform voices into community connectors—because radio is community
