Our Story
WHO WAS IN THE ROOM? Was the question that ignited a blog. As a long time Santa Monica resident, leader of Compassionate Santa Monica and only Latina who ran for a seat in the 2014 Santa Monica City Council election race, Zoë Muntaner is a speaker on media and publishing as it relates to the intersectionality of politics, art, education, business, technology and diversity. She founded NEW MOON Media & Communications, a boutique consulting firm for Public Relations, Digital Media, Advertising, Marketing, Film Production, and Publishing. Currently, she is at work on a documentary film about Santa Monica elections which started filming during her race in 2014. Zoë, a bilingual Puerto Rican is an animated, articulate, and visionary speaker, who engages audiences in how to develop and broadcast their message. With social media savvy and decades of experience in business and marketing, Zoë has a great deal of value to share with change-agents and people who want to make a difference or develop a brand aligned with social justice and social entrepreneurship . Her adage is "Government should be the servant of the people, NOT the ruler of the people." Zoë has spoken passionately, courageously, and convincingly before the Santa Monica City Council to get a unanimous vote to sign the Charter for Compassion and on issues related to worker and animal rights. She never ceases to marvel with her warmth, presence, and ability to see the bigger picture and connect the dots. DIVERSITY MATTERS is her first blog and outlet to the world, who will be launching a digital TV platform later this year. DIVERSITY MATTERS is a product of NEW MOON Media & Communications.
