About:
I thought for a long time I needed to pick a lane. Entertainer, producer, DJ, something singular, but I never could. It wasn't until recently that I realized I didn't have to. I've wanted to be in entertainment since I first picked up a hairbrush and sang the entire Grease soundtrack into it. If I wasn't going to be the entertainer, I knew I needed to be involved somehow.
Music has been my first love allegedly since I was in utero, and the fact that I'm named after the Beatles' "Michelle" isn't a coincidence. Music and culture are the two things I'm most drawn to in this life. The two lenses I can't help but see everything through.
Over 15 plus years of production experience later, across several genres, and wearing nearly every hat, what I value most are the relationships I create.
Here's what that looks like in practice: I move easily between branded, unscripted, and commercial work. I thrive under high-stakes environments with a creative sensibility, always making sure every step of production is fun, creative, and collaborative. I handle budgets, vendors, and client relationships with the same care I bring to the creative. Whether that's a full commercial budget or a personal project I made for under $200 and still count among the most passionate work I've done. I read rooms fast and I usually know what someone needs before they ask. I'm bilingual, bicultural, and built from a mix of influences. It shows up in the work.
I'm good at what I do because I understand people. That's emotional intelligence, and in production and storytelling, it’s everything. Honest, collaborative, and something I care about…that's the bar.
My involvement varies project to project. In most cases, I'm seeing them through from concept to delivery. When I'm not,I bring the same energy and attention to detail.

Before branded work, there was unscripted. Chasing story in real time, wherever it led. Directing multi-camera shoots, running in-depth interviews with high-level talent, building story stringouts and working with editors through entire episodes, and surviving network executive notes.
This is where I got my producing backbone. Unscripted doesn't leave room to not know how to problem-solve, and it has 100% made me a better producer for it. A reel of the some of the shows I've worked on.
Unscripted:
Personal Projects:
No client. No deadline. No paycheck. No sick days.
A channel. a culture. A vibe.
Back in 2013, when "going viral" still meant something, two Sh*t Miami Girls Say videos did exactly that and branded Miami forever. We made the accent iconic. Years later, a linguist studying the dialect actually cited our videos identifying it as its own thing. We even had our own podcast in 2018, back when that still meant something.
Co-written, directed, and starred in by me. A fun, silly, unfiltered love letter to Miami.

I was on the fence about DJing for way too long. The scene was so saturated. But let’s be honest, I've been hogging the aux cord my whole life, so really, this was always in the cards. When freelance work dried up during the writers' strike, I finally picked it up. Enter DJ Michelada: one of the best decisions I've ever made.
Next up: learning to produce music. Because if you've made it this far on my portfolio, you already know I don't stick to one lane.
