In Episode 24 of Lights, Camera, Latino, we chat with Rose Gutierrez (@r3gfilmz) — actress, filmmaker, and founder of R3G Filmz. Born and raised in Brooklyn, Rose shares her inspiring journey of growing up Latina in New York, taking a break from acting to raise her family, and then returning to pursue her passion for storytelling later in life.

We talk about the mission behind her company, the importance of creating opportunities for others, what it means to be Puerto Rican in this industry, and why it’s never too late to follow your dreams.

This is a conversation about resilience, representation, and carving out space for our voices in film.
