Her most notable works include The Three Deaths of Marisela Escobedo (Netflix), awarded Best Documentary at the Ariel Awards, as well as Caravanas and On the Line: Mexico, both nominated for an Emmy in Outstanding Investigative Journalism in Spanish.

Camila firmly believes in the individual responsibility to build the collective, and in empathy as the starting point for telling stories with respect, complexity, and depth. Her approach is defined by a humanistic, feminist, and sensitive perspective, seeking to make space for voices that have often been silenced or marginalized.
