Dee Vazquez is breathing new life into the old term “American Dream” by “resetting the bar for achievement”. That is how The Source magazine, “the bible of hip-hop music, culture, and politics” describes the impact Dee Vazquez’s work as a tv/radio personality, producer, journalist, and humanitarian has influenced her generation.

Beginning her television career as a host on the local cable access TV show “Video City”, Dee was able to gain on-camera experience as well as become skilled in TV production. After two years worth of experience Dee landed the role as the N.Y. correspondent for the bilingual TV show “The Roof” on Mun2 Network; being of Dominican and Puerto Rican descent she was able to connect with her Latin roots on the nationally syndicated TV show. Dee later went on to work with former Vice-President, Al Gore’s politically aware cable network, Current TV, and now can be seen on FUSE TV hosting “The Chronicles”, a music video show that chronicles the life and career of some of the biggest stars in music.

Dee’s work behind the camera attests to her ability of getting the job done both on and off camera. She co-produced the “Latin Pride 2009 & 2010″ project, a series of commercials encouraging Latin pride that aired during the National Puerto Rican Day parade on FOX 5 and MY 9 TV Networks. Dee also plays the role of creator, producer, and editor to the groundbreaking web-series, ‘PROFILE’, an intimate q&a session with some of the most influential and critically acclaimed artists of this generation. Questlove, founder and drummer of the Grammy Award winning Hip-Hop band “The Roots” had this to say about the PROFILE series: “Dee Vazquez committed the impossible: she got one of the most realest interviews from me and Tariq (Black Thought)”.

Apart from television Dee ventured out as a radio personality with some of the greatest legends in music history. Playing right-hand woman to reggae legend Earl Chin on Rockers Radio and featured alongside Hip-Hop legend DJ Marley Marl on Future Flavaz radio, Dee acquired the knowledge and confidence to star on her own radio show on Party 105.3 in Long Island, and while it was short-lived she left her mark. Known for introducing reggaeton to the people of Nassau and Suffolk County Dee invited hip-hop star Noreaga and Nina Sky to the South Hamptons to perform their hit “Oye Mi Canto”. Currently you can hear Dee Vazquez reign supreme alongside “The Drama King” DJ Kay Slay on HOT 97 and Sirius/XM Satellite Radio.

As a journalist Dee found her voice by penning socially conscious pieces for various well-known publications. She penned “The Hip-Hop Digest” where she explored Health, Politics, and Hip-Hop in The Source magazine, “Where My Ladies At?”, a column shining the light on women making great strides in their respected careers in “The Connex List”, and provides an advice column for prisoners in “Straight Stuntin’” magazine appropriately titled “Ask Dee Vazquez”. Recently, Dee teamed up with the authors Dawn Marie Daniels and Candace Sandy to share her story of “Finding Her Voice and Standing Up to Authority” in the book “Souls Of My Young Sisters” which also features a foreword written by Grammy Award winning R&B singer Mary J. Blige.

On a mission to motivate, inspire, and most importantly educate the younger and older generation who have been left behind, Dee travels state to state carrying the message: “Take TIME to IMAGINE the LIFE you want for yourself and WORK on making it happen” to inmates in prison, students in grade school all the way to graduate school, and professionals at a cross road in their career seeking information & inspiration. Regarded by her peers as a positive role model and utilized by corporate America and the political world as a bridge to connect to the youth and spread their message, Dee is able to create a trusting union between both worlds.

Aside from spreading information many people recognize Dee for her charismatic personality and look to share her energy with their audiences at live national and international events, many times more than once. Dee has travelled the Tri-State as host of Macy’s “Fashionista Fashion Show”, hosted 4 seasons of BK Fashion Weekend, 3 consecutive years at The Underground Music Awards, walked the runway for Tesla’s Group “Walk With Style” CancerCare Benefit, and has been the official moderator for The Women on the Move Tour (a women empowerment initiative) for the past 4 years.

Dee has been asked to share her expert advice and opinion on various talk shows like HOT 97′s “Street Soldiers” with Lisa Evers, Scott Ferrall’s Sirius/XM show on Howard 101, Mike & Juliette’s Fox’s 5 Morning Show, and BET’s “The Center”, and has judged 106 & Park’s “Freestyle Friday”.

Dee Vazquez’s goal is to utilize all media outlets to represent and inspire her generation, drawing inspiration from TV magnates like Oprah Winfrey and Christina Saralegui. Dee has opened a self-titled incorporation intended to brand her name throughout the United States and beyond.
