Gustavo Mancilla, fundador y director ejecutivo de MLatino Media con sede en Minneapolis, se sentó con Carolina Gustafson, miembra de la Mesa Directiva de VocalEssence, para conocer más sobre su perspectiva sobre el trabajo con el que VocalEssence se compromete a elevar y celebrar la cultura y la música mexicana y mexicoamericana.

Carolina Gustafson, Miembra de la Mesa Directiva de VocalEssence

Originaria de México, Carolina Gustafson es una firme creyente del poder del intercambio cultural y del uso de las artes y la educación como una herramienta para mejorar el entendimiento entre comunidades. Se mudo a Minnesota para trabajar como Agregado Cultural en el Consulado de México en Saint Paul. Su creatividad y entusiasmo, así como su experiencia profesional han sido fundamentales en su desempeño como promotora cultural de México y organizadora y coordinadora de eventos. 

Carolina se unió a la Mesa Directiva de VocalEssence en el 2018, después de servir en el Consejo Asesor para el programa Cantaré! desde el 2013. 

Actualmente, se encarga de organizar los eventos públicos para la organización Global Minnesota. Guiada por la misión de esta organización, se ha dedicado a continuar creando oportunidades para participación comunitaria, así como programación intercultural por medio de colaboración en diversos temas y eventos. 

Carolina vive actualmente con su esposo Jeff y su perrita Coco en Saint Paul. Disfruta cocinar y en sus ratos libres pintar y dibujar, así como visitar a su familia en México. 

Esperamos que disfrute de esta breve entrevista mientras aprenda más de Carolina y sobre su trabajo con VocalEssence. También esperamos inspirarle a aprender más sobre VocalEssence y también sobre el programa ¡Cantaré!. Y también informarlos sobre formas en las que puede participar con nosotros!

Gustavo Mancilla, CEO and founder of MLatino Media


Greetings, and Happy Summer from VocalEssence! We hope you have been enjoying your free access to all of the concerts on
VocalEssence On Demand!

In this edition of VocalEssence y Amigos, we feature an interview conversation with a very special guest who wants to share more with you about VocalEssence and the work we have been doing to deepen our relationship with the LatinX communities in the Twin Cities.

Gustavo Mancilla, founder and CEO of MLatino Media based in Minneapolis, sat down with VocalEssence Board Member Carolina Gustafson to learn more about her perspective on the work VocalEssence is committed to in uplifting and celebrating Mexican and Mexican American culture and music.

 

            Meet Carolina!

Carolina Gustafson, Member of VocalEssence Board of Directors

Carolina Gustafson, originally from Mexico, is passionate about the power of cultural exchange as well as using the arts and education as a tool to develop understanding between communities.  She moved to Minnesota eight years ago to work as the Cultural Attaché for the Consulate of Mexico in Saint Paul.  Her creativity and enthusiasm as well as her professional experience have been fundamental in her becoming a specialist in both strategic placement of cultural offerings from Mexico and event organizing and management.

Carolina joined the VocalEssence Board of Directors in 2018 after several years of serving on the Advisory Council for Cantaré!

Today, she is the Public Events Manager at Global Minnesota where she has developed a strong background in mission driven community engagement, cross-cultural collaborative programming on diverse topics and event planning.

Carolina currently lives with her husband Jeff and their rescue dog Coco in Saint Paul, loves cooking and enjoys painting and drawing in her free time, as well as going back home to Mexico as often as possible to visit her family.

We hope you enjoy this brief interview as you learn more from Carolina about her work with VocalEssence and the ¡Cantare! program. We also hope you feel inspired to learn more about VocalEssence and ways that you may want to participate with us!
