WE WORK WITH REAL HUMANS

At Diferente Creative, we keep it real—literally. Behind every video, podcast and digital media project is a team of talented humans (yes, actual people!) who know how to craft content that wows. No bots, no shortcuts, no cookie-cutter solutions. Just creativity, experience, and love for what we do.

Meet the real humans at your service.

We get it: AI can spit out content, but it takes real people to create something that generates lasting results. Our team brings years of expertise, fresh ideas, and an empathetic personality to everything we do. Whether it’s a fantastic video, stunning sound design, or a story that sticks, we pour our hearts into every detail.

Why? Because we believe content should make people feel something—and that’s not something you can automate. So, if you’re looking for high-quality digital media content that’s crafted with care, passion, and just the right amount of human magic, you’ve come to the right place.

    I’m passionate about breathing life into brands through storytelling that goes beyond the content on a page. Through a deep understanding of brand values, voice, and the customer journey, I believe every brand can be as brilliant as a Shakespeare play.

  • KYLE DAVILA

    CREATIVE DIRECTOR

    I can’t preach about some generic process I use, every problem is different, requiring a unique effort to arrive at a solution. For me this isn’t work, HOV said it best “I love what I do, and when you love what you do, you want to be the best at it.” Let’s work together.

  • KEAGAN STROMBERG

    AUDIO ENGINEER

    Fun fact: I’m a singer, composer, and audio engineer with a background in music production who happened to come across podcast production when I was stuck at home during the pandemic. Music is my passion, so when I’m not helping bring a project to the next level, you can find me at the recording studio.

  • MARISSA ALCANTAR

    PRODUCTION COORDINATOR

    I believe in telling stories with passion and gusto, which is why I love guiding our clients through our creation journey. Fun fact: As a pop culture junkie, I love keeping a pulse on the changing and evolving trends in media, this helps us identify unique angles and ideas that we can apply to our work.
