Since 2020, she has overseen the gathering of stories and content, sourcing from social media and submissions from reporters and experts worldwide. Her commitment to independent journalism reflects her belief in the power of free speech, emphasizing the importance of giving a platform to voices often silenced by mainstream media.

Reporting under near-constant danger of explosions, she sustained a neck injury, though she has fully recovered.

She was also involved in social media marketing for MEA TV & Radio in the Greater San Diego Area from 2018 to 2020. Ms. Santos' earlier roles include serving as the San Diego coordinator for The Peace Alliance and advised Virginia Isaias, the founder of the human trafficking survivors foundation.

In addition to her professional roles, Ms. Santos is deeply committed to civic-minded initiatives. She was a coordinator for The Peace Alliance from 2014 to 2019 and has an ongoing association with Sons of Liberty International.

Her contributions span creative publications and social initiatives, including her involvement in the "Music for Pixels" project and the feature of her piece on immigration reform in "Latinas: Gender, Race and Class." Ms. Santos' efforts have earned her awards in victim advocacy, which she turned down, highlighting her enduring commitment to impactful journalism and civic engagement.

Beyond her career, Ms. Santos enjoys reading, writing, singing, dancing, cooking, traveling, photography, attending live music events and engaging with various marketing and entrepreneur groups.
