OVERALL

My audio experience goes back to when I was 16 years old. Still a teenager, I experienced professional on hands training and practice at KBOO 90.7 FM (one of the oldest community radios in the nation) by developing an idea of bringing young Latinas together to primarily talk about health related issues in radio. The weekly talk show was completely produced and hosted by youth. I am very proud to have been part of this great show that even today continues airing and expanding.

It was at KBOO that I started producing audio pieces such as promos, documentaries and recorded interviews. At Bustos Media, I had the opportunity to put my knowledge in audio editing, copy writing and voice over to work in a very competitive industry.

Today I enjoy producing audio pieces of all kind at the comfort of my home studio.
