I’m Salaama Journey
I’m a producer and artist based in Mérida. My background is a mix of corporate strategy and philosophy, which I use to explore the way creativity and learning shape the way we live.
After moving to Mexico, I started Mérida Collective Magazine and the Mérida Collective Community to help highlight underrepresented voices and build genuine connections across different cultures.
I originally created Mérida Collective Magazine as a space for Black and Mexican communities, women, LGBTQ+ folks and families building new lives abroad. It showed me how important it is for people to have spaces where they feel seen, connected, and at home. That effort has grown into a community of over 450 members.
My background in entertainment led me to launch B1 Entertainment to help artists develop their craft and step up as professionals. As a classically trained musician, I love bridging the gap between raw talent and practical execution—whether through vocal coaching, stage performance development, showcase production, or setting up live performance opportunities.
At the end of the day, everything I do comes down to helping great ideas, talented people, and creative communities build with intention and purpose.
