História

Amy Collado is a curator and philanthropist born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. After majoring in Fashion Design at The Art Institute of New York City, she decided her calling for philanthropy was much stronger, therefore leading to the formation of the not-for-profit charity Fly Clothes for Good Grades in 2011. Open City Mixtape is her first venture in the world of filmmaking.
