Sarah Valenzuela

I am a motivated and highly organized operations coordinator with a strong foundation in coordinating cross-functional teams and managing schedules. My experience spans creative and operational environments, where I excel in supporting project delivery and maintaining stakeholder communication. I thrive in dynamic, collaborative settings and am known for taking initiative and exceeding expectations.

Currently, I work at the Santo Domingo Global Film Festival, where I coordinate schedules, manage logistics, and support key milestones across multiple program tracks. My role involves maintaining strong communication with local and international collaborators to ensure smooth event execution. I also contribute to risk management and contingency planning, ensuring that time-sensitive deliverables are met with precision.

In addition to my current role, I have experience as a production assistant for a film co-production with Puerto Rico, overseeing third-party deliverables and organizing timelines across various departments. I also served as a remote content and communications intern for Soy Caribe Premium Magazine, where I maintained documentation for article tracking and ensured coordination across departments. My project management skills were further showcased when I directed the award-winning documentary short 'Seré', managing the entire lifecycle of the project and delivering it on schedule.
