Karla Rodriguez

About

Karla Rodriguez was born in Medellin, Colombia, the youngest of five children. She currently resides in the Hunts Point Community of The South Bronx. Karla is a graduate of Fordham University, with a double BA in Political Science and Philosophy and also holds an MA in Media Studies from The New School. The values her parents taught her, coupled with the rebellious voice of Hip Hop and the misunderstood socio-political history of her native country inspire a deep-rooted passion for social justice-- using her vision and skills in media to fight for gender, racial and class equality. Her affinity for photography has led her to develop a talent as a videographer, editor and graphic designer. Karla currently works as a media educator and film producer in New York City.
