Colleen Viana (Coy)

I'm a first generation Filipina-American on a mission to build more inclusive and equitable media spaces, both digitally and IRL. With my experience in entertainment marketing and advertising spanning a decade, I've seen first hand how the industry has not created safe spaces for people of color to create autonomously or be themselves freely. I want to help change that.

With my knack for strategy and eye for inclusivity, it is my goal to amplify and produce content that show the breadth of creativity we, as people of color, have in entertainment and beyond. Guided by my passion for social impact, I am shaping my career (once rooted in assimilation and complacency) with the intention of working with brands who aren't afraid to make changes within the industry and shake up the things that are clearly not working to advance representation and diverse storytelling.
