Camaro West is a filmmaker, producer, and the Co-Executive Director of Peace is Loud, a non-profit that harnesses the power of storytelling by women, trans, and nonbinary change makers through film. She holds a Masters Degree in International Development Studies, and in the past has led global advocacy work in collaboration with UN Women, Youth and United Nations Global Alliance, The Dove Self Esteem Project.

Through her work Camaro helps emerging filmmakers find their voices through their projects. Through the Film Impact Campaign, her organization facilitates partnerships with grassroots organizers and the communities most affected by the social injustices. Peace is Loud helps filmmakers advance their causes. They also support the powerful self-identified women on their Speakers Bureau, by connecting them with speaking events that then financially support their work on the ground.

Kitty Pilgrim talks to Camaro about the power of storytelling through film, and how her mission affords women the chance to be heard on their own terms, and depict the world though their own personal lens.
