Executive Board
Annie Nguyen
Co-Director
Annie is from El Segundo, CA and Burnsville, MN. She is a second year at USC, and aims to create documentaries. Her favorite directors are Wes Anderson and Sofia Coppola. She adores the show Euphoria. She is also passionate about climate change reform, diversity in entertainment, and social media management.
Natalie Cohn-Aronoff
Co-Director
Proudly hailing from Princeton, New Jersey, Natalie is a screenwriting major and public policy minor. She hopes to write darkly funny dramas, crushingly sad comedies, and tackle themes of class and gender in both. Some of the women in film and television she most admires are Elaine May, Nora Ephron, Sofia Coppola, and Phoebe Waller-Bridge. When she’s not on the third floor of SCA frantically writing pages, Natalie can be found in skates as a player on the USC Women’s Ice Hockey team.
Jiwon Lee
Festival Coordinator
Jiwon is a CAMS sophomore from Korea (nationality-wise) and China (physical family home-wise). When she’s not watching/making movies, she’s either planning her playlist for her KXSC radio show or playing Stardew Valley on her phone. Her favorite film is Jaco van Dormael’s Mr. Nobody (2009), but she is also a die-hard MCU fan. She hopes to write and direct movies down the line.
Jackie Martinez
Marketing and Public Relations
WCA’s former Feminist Media Festival Co-Coordinator, Jackie loves Jane The Virgin, spending time with her dog, hikes, and is a big adrenaline junkie! One day, she hopes to be VP of Corporate Responsibility at Warner Bros. in order to increase diversity and inclusion, as well as sustainability in entertainment.
Viki Bene
Co-External Event Coordinator
Viki is from Budapest, Hungary and has lived LA for about 5 years now since finishing high school at an LA boarding school. She loves photography, writing, traveling and new adventures. Viki was a social media intern in Dublin for the summer which inspired her to pursue social media marketing for entertainment. Needless to say, she loves binge-watching Netflix and I’m into all sorts of TV dramas, from Chinese and Korean to Turkish murder mysteries.
Vasilisa Belokon
Co-External Event Coordinator
A current sophomore majoring in Cinema and Media Studies with a minor in the Entertainment Industry, Vasilisa is natively Russian but was raised in Madrid, Spain. She takes a great interest in writing, directing and producing and hopes to build a career in one of those areas of interest. She has directed several short films, both narrative and documentaries. She hopes to bring new diverse, female voices to share their experiences in the entertainment industry with the organization.
Reagan Shea
Internal Event Coordinator
A sophomore studying Film and Television Production, Reagan calls Denver, Colorado home but has lived all around the world from Dublin, Ireland to Singapore. Her expat experience and traveling has given her a world view that is open minded and an inspiration for her work in the visual arts. At WCA, she matches big with littles as she hopes to connect young women with strong mentors turned friends.
Nia Sallie
Graphic Designer
A sophomore majoring in Animation & Digital Arts at USC’s School of Cinematic Arts, Nia is from Raleigh, North Carolina. Her hobbies include drawing, reading think pieces, and pinning recipes she’ll never make. She’s passionate about supporting marginalized voices, and is excited to be working with amazing artists!
