LOS ANGELES, USA // After graduating from NYU with a degree in Communications, Montanna was eager to pursue a career in broadcast journalism. However, before entering the workforce, she decided to take a quick vacation to LA for one last thrill...10 years on, she is still there.

While originally intent on carving a place for herself in front of the camera, Montanna was afforded a quite unexpected opportunity to join InSync Advertising as an assistant editor. There, under Smitty’s guidance and encouragement, she found her footing as an editor and discovered a new passion for storytelling on the other side of the lens.

Now an editor at AV Squad, Montanna considers herself very fortunate to be working alongside some of the most talented, creative professionals in the industry and continues to learn and grow through their collaboration and support. She now thinks of broadcast journalism as the best thing that never happened to her.
