VALERIA DIAZ
I am a film and television production professional with five years of experience working in the TV and film industry across feature films, television, commercials, and music videos.
​
My love for entertainment and film began in childhood and deepened at the age of 13 after attending a broadcast television class in middle school. Discovering the power of storytelling through moving images made it difficult to imagine pursuing anything else. From that moment on, I knew I wanted to direct and produce the kinds of films that shaped my own upbringing.
​
My hands-on professional experience began in 2017 at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, where I worked through the Disney College Program. That opportunity provided a strong foundation in entertainment operations, collaboration, and large-scale production environments, and it solidified my passion for working in the industry.
​
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Communications with a focus on Video & Visual Media, as well as a Master of Business Administration. This combination allows me to balance creative vision with strong business acumen, organizational strategy, and leadership skills.
​
Through hands-on experience across departments, I’ve developed a deep understanding of production workflows and logistics. I am now ready to take on the next chapter of my career and am pursuing full-time opportunities as a showrunner, production coordinator, creative director, project manager, and related roles. I am recognized for my strengths in communication, logistics, and production management, and for my ability to work effectively with diverse personality dynamics across creative and operational teams.
​
I thrive in fast-paced environments and value collaboration, clarity, and mutual respect across all teams. With experience managing complex schedules, creative stakeholders, and deliverables, I help ensure projects move efficiently from concept to completion.
​
I also live with a one-in-a-million rare condition called Cleidocranial Dysplasia (CCD), which was famously introduced to mainstream television through the character Dustin on Stranger Things. I am an active advocate for individuals with rare conditions, and this lived experience deeply informs my empathetic leadership style. I believe accessibility, understanding, and strong leadership are essential—both on and off set.
