DIECIOCHO Podcast – Manny Ruiz, Hispanicize Texas

Latina

By Victor Landa, NewsTaco (1 munite read, 20 minute listen) 

Here’s the deal, if you’re a content creator in Texas or close to Texas, you should be at Hispanicize Texas and you should listen to this podcast.

If you don’t know what a content creator is, maybe it’s not for you. Either way, it’s an event (not a conference) designed to fill the well, to connect and to learn. I’ll leave it at that, plus the fact that you’ll have loads of fun.

I talked to Manny Ruiz, the CEO of the event, about what Hispanicnize Texas is, what you should expect if you plan to go and how this all came about.

It’s a quick, informative listen.
