Senior Video Producer · The Weather Channel

Hi, I’m Andrea —
an innovative
storyteller.

From short-form digital content to long-format documentaries, I push the boundaries of creativity and technology to deliver powerful, high-impact messages.

“I believe there is no single, set-in-stone way to tell a story — it is an evolving art form designed to connect with human emotion.”

About & Journey

I combine journalism, technical post-production, and digital innovation to turn complex weather and human-interest stories into content that captivates millions.

I’m a Senior Video Producer at The Weather Channel, where I craft compelling, fast-paced digital video and elevate visual stories with clean, engaging design. I thrive on creative challenges and love finding new ways to make audiences feel the story.

My path has spanned two countries and two languages — from on-air reporting in Colombia to producing for national U.S. media. That journey shapes how I tell stories today: with empathy, range, and a reporter’s instinct for what matters.

My Journey

  1. 2005

    The Spark — From Front of the Camera to Behind It

    My passion for storytelling began on the set of the Colombian TV series Juego Limpio, where I worked as an actress while studying sports journalism. Being in front of the camera sparked a deeper curiosity — I wanted to create the stories myself.

  2. RCN

    Journalist & Reporter · RCN Television

    I started as an investigative news intern and worked my way up to on-air reporter, covering high-stakes beats — health, sports, economics, and politics — for national morning and afternoon broadcasts.

  3. FOX

    Post-Production Coordinator · FoxTelecolombia

    Ready to learn the entertainment side, I joined FOX’s Colombian production house, managing post-production workflows for major TV shows, reality series, documentaries, and telenovelas.

  4. The Leap

    Coming to the USA

    Realizing that global storytelling required a global language, I made a bold move to Atlanta, Georgia — learning English as a second language at Georgia Tech and earning my Master’s in Film & Television from the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD).

  5. CNN

    Breaking into U.S. Media · CNN Español

    Re-establishing my career in a new country and a second language was a massive challenge, but persistence paid off. I started as a News Desk Intern and was quickly promoted to Associate Producer.

  6. Today

    Senior Video Producer · The Weather Company

    I took a leap away from Spanish-language media to challenge myself fully in English at The Weather Channel’s digital team — and was promoted to Senior Video Producer in 2025. Today I lead creative video work that turns data and human stories into high-impact content.

What I Do Now

AI in My Workflow

I’m always exploring how AI can speed up and elevate creative work — from generative visuals and AI voice to smart assistants that streamline production. A few tools I work with:
