If you've never been featured in the media or are not a trained or natural leader or speaker, you can become one and be successful at it.
These past two years, I’ve coached over 50 leaders in media and public speaking whose voices will be heard.
I’m so proud of them for taking steps to share their messages and, at the same time, impact other people who need to listen to those messages.

Culture is a powerful tool for empowerment.
It helps us to celebrate our differences, to embrace our heritage, and to connect with others in a meaningful way. When we recognize the value of our cultural identities, we can use them as a source of strength and resilience, and as a means to create positive change in our communities.
– Sonia Sotomayor
the first Latina Supreme Court Justice in the United States

Hi I’m Iza!
I’ve worked in newsrooms across both English and Spanish-language media, including an award-winning publication under The New York Times Regional Newspaper Group.
I’ve also advised U.S. Congress Members and thought leaders on media strategy and communications, helping them connect with diverse audiences at scale.
Now, I help mission-driven brands expand their reach, break barriers, and scale their impact.
Your message shouldn’t be limited by language or culture gaps.
I help you connect with the audiences you haven’t reached yet.
The world is bigger than the market you’re serving now.
Let’s take you further.
My weapon has always been language,
and I’ve always used it, but it has changed. Instead of shaping the words like knives now, I think they’re flowers or bridges.
– Sandra Cisneros
