Cori Ramirez

Communication Skills Consultant

Venezuelan-born, Miami-raised multi-hyphenate Maria Corina Ramirez earned her B.F.A. in Acting from New World School of the Arts. Combining elements of theatre, movement, and mindfulness, Ramirez has served as a bilingual teaching artist and coach at Miami New Drama, the Artists as Catalysts Program (The Peace Studio), Evolutionary Arts, Alejo Communication, and other non-profit organizations. She has been invited to speak at UC Santa Barbara, NBC-Universal, Miami-Dade College, NALIP, Nosotros, Miami Film Festival, and Women in Film (NYC), among others. She is also a certified yoga instructor.

Her original screenplay, One Day, currently in pre-production, was a 2022 finalist for the Tribeca Film Festival Untold Stories grant. Her debut feature film, Bridges, which she wrote, produced, directed, and starred in, premiered to sold-out audiences and much acclaim at the 25th Urbanworld Film Festival in NYC, the 38th Miami Film Festival, and the 20th Los Angeles Latino International Film Festival. The film was dubbed "one of the most accurate film portrayals of what immigrant youths withstand in this country" by the L.A Times and "must see cinema" by Remezcla. Prior, she starred in and co-wrote Complex magazine's first-ever scripted series, Grown, which was also an HBO Project Greenlight winner. She has starred in two NBC-Telemundo TV series, two Cine Latino films, and over a dozen national campaigns and commercials. Her solo theatre piece, Supa'Nova, won an artist residency at Miami Theatre Center and a producer's scholarship for the 2017 Hollywood Fringe Festival in L.A. In 2019, she was invited to participate in the Thread creative writing intensive at Yale University.

Ramirez's work is dedicated to amplifying and humanizing the female and Latinx experiences. When she is not coaching, acting, filmmaking, or writing, she is making her family laugh, dancing, and traveling.
