Fabiola Méndez—one of our incredible BALAN members, and last year’s Inspiring Leader Award recipient— was just featured in Bad Bunny’s NPR Tiny Desk Concert!

Watch Fabiola on the cuatro puertorriqueño, tiple, bordonúa, and background vocals on the NPR Music YouTube channel. We are so proud of you, Fabi!
