Marky Enriquez
Marky’s Bio:
Marky Enriquez is an event producer / DJ with a passion for the arts and bringing communities together. As one of the original members of Massive Selector, a San Francisco-based collective of artists, musicians, and entrepreneurs, Marky produces acclaimed events such as Wonder-Full: A Tribute to the Wonders of Stevie, Soul Slam: Prince and Michael Jackson, and the bi-coastal event SFNY. Marky is also a former CAAMFest marketing manager and music curator for Directions In Sound where he created buzz-worthy campaigns for the nation’s largest showcase for new Asian and Asian American films.
What Marky is looking forward to at CAAMFest:
“I’m really looking forward to checking out Bad Rap with Dumbfounded, Awkwafina and the Bay Area’s own Kero One. The story of Asian American rappers trying to break into hip-hop is something I can relate to as a DJ. I’ve also booked several of these rappers for Directions In Sound, so it’ll great to see how far they’ve come since they played at CAAMFest.”
Alice Wong
What Alice is looking forward to at CAAMFest:
“I’m a sucker for films from Asia, especially ones you won’t find at your local cinema. This is one reason why I love CAAMFest so much. Looking forward to Harmonium by Koji Fukada, plus I’m a longtime fan of Tadanobu Asano!”
