Thatiana Diaz is changing the media as the Senior Editor of Somos, the first cross-platform channel for the Latinx community of Refinery29. At Somos, they believe that representation matters, and they work to give voice to the members of the Latinx, knowing that there isn’t just one way to be Latinx.

- What inspired her to pursue a career in the media and to take jobs aligned with her goal.
- How it was to grow up as a first-generation Dominican American and what has changed since.
- How Somos works, what does it mean to create content driven by the audience first? How do they manage to give voice to different members of the Latinx community?
- Representation matters. For Thatiana, it is equally important to provide representation for the Latinx community and its diversity.
