THE BASICS
February 17, 2025 at 8:06 PM
Hey there, thanks for visiting my small corner of the internet! My name is ZaZu and I’m a writer, musician and social media manager based in Los Angeles.
My work is focused on building community — helping people connect with themselves and with others, inspiring critical conversations and trying to create moments of joy every day.
I’ve always had a love for storytelling in many forms, and have been able to turn this passion into a career in communications, helping brands and educational institutions tell impactful narratives that build positive social change. Currently, I’m supporting the next generation of communicators and change makers — and sharing impactful research and advancements shaping the future — as the Social Media and Digital Communications Specialist at USC Annenberg.
I’m also working on a record, which I’m currently trying to figure out how to produce and get out into the world. Beyond my professional and creative work, I love to dance (I’ve been taking ballet classes for 23 years!), collage, wander around museums, discover and share new music and spend lots of time with friends and family.
LATELY, I’VE BEEN…
