The EMCL Collective (E-education M-mentorship C-compassion L-laughter) was created by Andriana Santiago with the mission to develop life empowering opportunities for student refugees to continue their education with private sponsorships, mentorships and programming rooted in compassion and laughter wellness. EMCL focuses on investing in the whole student instead of only their academic success. EMCL provides financial support for tuition, housing, food, clothing, sickness, and extracurricular activities for mental health. If youd like to be a part of whatever we have going on, send a message my way! (Visit EMCLcollective.org for more Information)

"Watching Andriana perform is a magical experience. She takes you through a whimsical journey. Not only is her voice beautiful, but the fact that she produces her music and improvs the lyrics live makes it all the more enchanting."

“ANDRIANA's performances are captivating, entertaining and clever. Each show different and authentic. “
“If Shania Twain & Minnie Mouse had a baby, she would be Andriana Santiago! Andriana is a beautiful, romantic & playful singer. She uses the power of humour & audience participation within her performances. The room holds still when she sings. ”
Andriana's infamous character, “BirDolphin”, combines a skillful yet effortless mix of improvised comedy and essential commentary on the state of our oceans. Her ability to freely express, enchant, and lift the audience is always an inspiring treat."

For my @AndrianaSINGS project, I wrote a song everyday for about 3 years on my instagram. I started taking these ‘life jingles’ seriously when i realized how much joy it brought myself and those who gave them a listen. However, whether its silly or serious the focus is on self expression and how singing can inspire.
