From taking the stage as Drake Bell’s touring guitarist, to exploring the detail-oriented world of musical direction—Jimena Fosado is a creative on the move. After relocating to LA from her native Mexico City, she’s had the opportunity to play with a wild collection of industry legends, including Steve Vai, Beto Cuevas and many more. Her growing social media presence has earned her recognition and even partnership opportunities with brands like PRS Guitars and Quilter Amplification.

Marilyn sat down with Jimena at NRG Recording Studios in Hollywood for a jam-packed conversation about Patreon, navigating the LA music industry, and never forgetting where you come from.
