Episode Notes

Angelica Mata is a digital marketer who was a guest in season one of our show. Her field became an interest through her appreciation for film. This passion inevitably led her to pursue a Film degree at the University of Texas at Austin. To this day, she is captivated by the profound effect created by the various elements that comprise a film. These emotions create lasting memories that are sure to be shared amongst people. As and TEDxSanAntonio speaker curator and current Programming Committee chair, she understands the importance of sharing someone’s passion and the story that comes with it. Her fervent belief that rich relationships can be built through story resonates in her dedication to fostering user engagement using social media. Culled from experiences over the course of her career from Apple Retail, freelance work as well as her role with Overland Partners, she has developed a keen understanding of how technology and storytelling work together to connect with an audience.

In the season premier Geli and I discuss the part mental health played at SXSW in Austin this past March, provide a recap of season one, and offer a look into what you may be able to expect in Season two.
