Meet the people behind Trill Voices
We’re a small, independent team — backed by a growing network of volunteer mentors, editors, designers, and industry advisors — working to open real pathways into media for the next generation of writers, illustrators, and creatives.
BOARD & LEADERSHIP
Victor Ahumada
Executive Director / President & CEO
Victor leads Trill Voices’ day-to-day operations, guiding its mission to open real pathways into media for the next generation of journalists, designers, and creatives. Under his leadership, 2025 marked several firsts — including the organization’s first published impact report and its first year systematically tracking outcomes from intake through early career. He’s especially focused on transparency, and driven by a simple belief: great creative and editorial work grows out of curiosity, clarity, and courage, not privilege.
Liam Atkinson
Founder / Secretary
Liam founded Trill in 2015 as an independent digital platform, after watching talented young writers hit the same closed doors again and again — no industry contacts, no way to afford unpaid internships, no route in. A decade later, he continues to guide Trill Voices’ mission as Secretary of the Board, championing the belief that curiosity, clarity, and courage matter more than privilege. As he puts it: “Our mission isn’t scale; it’s impact.”
Adam Kline
Vice President, Board of Directors
As Vice President of the board, Adam leads the TRILL Voices brand: the identity, voice, and presence that shape how the organization shows up in the world. He also helps build the technical systems that turn the mission into working programs.
Adam is the founder of Kline Interactive, with 25 years of experience in web design and digital marketing. Talent is everywhere, but access isn’t. TRILL’s mission matters to Adam because it closes that gap, creating real entry points into creative careers.
