I’m a 35-year-old producer of branded content for Taco Bell.
My team and I are responsible for all the video content that comes out of Taco Bell.
We handle all types of video content, from internal videos to certain broadcast ad spots.

I majored in film in college.
Quickly, I learned that Hollywood was not the right fit for me and that corporate content and advertising offered better career and financial opportunities.
My main job aside, I currently moonlight as a front-end developer, which I’ve been working on making as my side hustle since 2020.
Like any developer, I’m constantly learning and hope to turn this into a business.
I believe that two key features of my workspace are its capability to be a standing or sitting workspace and my dual displays, which help to maximise productivity.
I’ve been building out this workspace since the emergence of work-from-home.
This space really came together last year, but I started working on it in 2020.
The room is long 20×13, but it’s also my living room.
My desk is positioned towards two east-facing windows, and I have a door that leads out to a balcony on my left that also brings more sunlight into the room.
Overall, I feel like this room doesn’t get a lot of natural light, mainly because once the sun passes over the top of the building, the living room can feel like a cave.
So I’ve had to get creative with lighting throughout the room/apartment to liven up the space.
I chose this room for my desk because previously, I had my desk in my bedroom, but during the pandemic, my room became the place where I worked, ate, slept, and hung out.
So it was nice to move my workspace into another room to separate some of my spaces.
