Carla Sanchez, Founder
Carla grew her platform to a reach of more than 30,000 followers and became one of DC’s early influencers, landing a major collaboration with a national brand in 2012. Her work and expertise have been featured in publications including Washingtonian, NOVA Magazine, ELLE, and Refinery29, among others.
Today, Carla brings her deep knowledge of social media, marketing, and the DC hospitality scene to SCDC The Agency, helping restaurants, hospitality brands, and small businesses build their presence, tell their stories, and create meaningful connections with their audiences.
As the co-owner of Casa Kantuta, a Bolivian pop-up bar and cultural experience, Carla is also deeply immersed in the local hospitality and events community. Through her work as a DC guide and curator, she has developed a strong pulse on the city's restaurants, bars, chefs, creatives, small businesses, and emerging hospitality concepts—giving her a unique perspective on what resonates with DC audiences.
Her extensive network of influencers and creatives across the DMV allows her to connect brands with the right voices to create authentic, strategic, and impactful campaigns. From social media management and influencer marketing to hospitality consulting, events, and experiential activations, Carla combines strategy, creativity, and an insider's understanding of DC to help brands stand out.
