Desiree Marisol Carcamo

Desiree Marisol Carcamo (they/she) is a very superstitious Mexican-Salvadoran-American Gen Z writer, director, actor, and scientist. They grew up in a haunted house that was once owned by devil worshippers in South Central LA and survived being a closeted queer kid at a toxic, conservative Inland Empire Christian high school. 

Their early career has been developed through the CBS Leadership Pipeline Challenge (2022), the Disney-NHMC Series Writer program (2021), winning NBCUniversal and Nosotros’ Ya Tu Sabes! Monolog Slam (2020), and directing their debut play EL PASO at the Zephyr Theater as part of the Hollywood Fringe Festival (2023). They earned their masters-bachelors of bioengineering at University of California Riverside.
