Marifer Montufar
@marifermontufar
Creative media professional with expertise in production and public relations.
What I'm looking for
I am a passionate media arts professional with a Bachelor of Arts from Emerson College, specializing in Media Arts Production. My journey in the industry has been marked by significant achievements, including my role as Lead Singer and Co-Producer for Montufar, where I released the single 'Suéter,' featured on Apple Music’s playlists. Collaborating with renowned artists like Jesse y Joy and John Waugh from The 1975 has enriched my experience and honed my skills in music production and public relations.
In addition to my music career, I have gained valuable insights into the casting process through a course taught by the VP of Casting at Sony Pictures. My hands-on experience in directing live television broadcasts at Emerson College has equipped me with the technical expertise to manage complex production environments. I thrive in collaborative settings, whether it’s co-writing and co-directing content for social media or managing production logistics for live events.
