Vanessa Maria
Broadcaster & DJ
Vanessa Maria is a young London-based broadcaster, presenter and DJ championing both music and good mental health. As well as a radio show on Foundation FM, Maria hosts a Resident Advisor podcast in partnership with Black Minds Matter, which highlights Black talent in electronic music. She’s also currently a Digital Marketer at Sony Music’s Black Butter Records and a member of Don’t Keep Hush, a non-profit organisation focussing on music as a vehicle through which to talk about mental health. With plans to launch a radio show for Black Butter Records, and having made her Boiler Room debut this November at Warehouse Project, Maria is destined for very big things.
