About El Wendy

Hi! I'm El wendy. I am a Sophomore at Loyola Chicago studying Public Relations and Advertising, and my goal is to ultimately work in the music industry. Apart from school, I work as a DJ and member of the promotional team at Loyolas radio station, WLUW 88.7. In doing this, I have become a published music journalist/photographer and been able to explore Chicagos independent music scene.

El's Experience

I have been able to host radio programming for WLUW 88.7 FM (an independent student-run radio station), as well as cover live concerts and music events throughout Chicago through photography, reporting, and written reviews. On top of that, I Write concert reviews for publishing on the station’s website, often featuring photography from the live performances which are edited by me. Overall, I have gotten very comfortable with throwing myself into new environments, and quickly adapting as an upcoming music journalist.

She Is The Music PresentsWomen Sharing the Spotlight

On behalf of She Is The Music, it is with great pleasure that we recognize the below women for their extraordinary contributions to the music industry at our inaugural Women Sharing The Spotlight cocktail event.

Women Sharing The Spotlight is founded in the ethos that when we make more space for each other, when we bring more women into the room, we create a vibrant spirit and ecosystem of mentorship, growth and opportunity -- together. This is a unique event for industry leaders to not only converge and celebrate -- but to share their platforms, their voices, and their strength with one another and with the next generations of women forging the path ahead.

The list has been selected by our advisory council as one of 50 exceptional women to be celebrated for your 20+ years of remarkable achievement, contribution and impact in music.

Rooted in the conviction that 'We Are Stronger Together', we have asked each honoree to nominate another woman they admire to share the spotlight.

Women Sharing The Spotlight is envisioned as an annual celebration, creating a platform to elevate and empower women who are shaping the future of music.
