FELIPE DE LA CRUZ
DIGITAL MEDIA & SYSTEMS MANAGER
As Digital Content & Media Coordinator, Felipe ensures the world sees the beauty and impact of UnChained’s mission. But he’s more than a storyteller—he’s in the trenches, building trust, fostering connection, and fighting for change. For him, UnChained isn’t just a job—it’s his way of saving the world, one youth, one dog, and one story at a time. He invites others who share that same fire to join him in making a difference.
