  • E10 - Lucia Sawh Doesn't Know Where She's From

    Lucia Sawh is an actor and movement artist dwelling in Brooklyn, New York. Don’t ask her where she’s from, because she won’t have a clear answer for you. Although she was born in Colombia to a Colombian mother, and Guyanese father, she was cultivated throughout the US, moving from state to state every few years. The only consistency in her life was her love for the arts. She is a conservatory graduate of Terry Knickerbocker Studio and is currently studying improv at UCB. While she continues to work with independent filmmakers and artists of all walks to develop original art, she is lover of collaborations, so feel free to drop her a line! She loves new friends, feminism, hip hop, movement, and her nephew, Gabriel, above all. www.luciasawh.com // all the socials: @luciasawh

  • E8 - Esther Burke (A La Mezcla Family Special)

    Esther is a consumer behavior and motivation researcher who spends most of her time trying to understand why people do, say, watch and buy the things that they do, with a focus on deconstructing how the internet and emerging technologies are revolutionizing the way we interact, consumer information and make decisions. Esther grew up in a half-Peruvian, half-Irish household (the same one as Adrian!), so she's equally well-versed in making Pisco Sours as well as how to properly pour a Guinness!
