Audio Producer and KALW Audio Academy AlumniAfter completing my studies in Political Science and Communication between France and Latinoamerica, I specialized as a content manager and creative producer in the visual communication industry in the US, while writing for a handful of design media. In 2022, I joined the KALW Audio Academy cohort as a News Producer.
I’m fascinated to see how radio and podcasting stand at the crossroads between the oral tradition of telling stories and a renewing media industry. I'm excited to become part of this exciting movement as an Audio Producer.
