Film Projects
I’ve worked in production for shows like WORK IN PROGRESS (Showtime), LOVECRAFT COUNTRY (MAX), the feature film, YOU ARE MY HOME (Netflix), and the WE GO HIGH music video for Chance the Rapper. Recently, I worked as an Associate Producer with Miraflores Films’ documentary, WITH THIS LIGHT (PrimeVideo). I’ve also worked in commercial production.
I also recently served as Producer for MISTER ABBOTT, a documentary short (currently in a festival run) on Robert S. Abbott, one of America’s first Black millionaires and the founder of The Chicago Defender newspaper.
I’m a proud member of Mezcla Media Collective, a 600-member non-profit organization that provides resources and equity for emerging BIPOC, femme-identified, filmmakers of color. I’m also a trained actor, with training from Acting Studio Chicago.
About
Welcome! I’m Natalia, and I’m a Blaxican Communications Professional turned Digital Media Producer/Writer/Actor who works to create conscious content that amplifies the stories and of women and people of color. So far, my film career experience spans working in production for scripted series, narrative and documentary feature length and short film, music video and commercial production.
I momentarily left my beloved inner-city Chicago for Midwestern cornfields to obtain a B.A in Journalism & Mass Communication and a B.A. in Art Photography from the University of Iowa. I’m a proud Hawkeye, even though I never actually attended an Iowa football game - hey, don’t judge me.
Favorite past times: dry red wines, classic 90’s comedies, square-cut thin crust pizza (yes - how Chicago locals eat pizza), aroma therapy candles, Twitter, and pugs - preferably all at once please! I love my city of Chicago and try to represent it in my work as much as I can.
