Not only has Adriana Roberts been going to Burning Man longer than nearly all the people who run it, but she’s been publishing an independent newspaper there for nearly as long, having launched the legendary Piss Clear — now called the BRC Weekly — in 1995, two years after her first Burn in 1993.

Marco Cochrane was born to American artists in Venice, Italy in 1962 and raised in Northern California in the midst of the political and cultural movement of those times. As a result, Marco learned respect for oneness, balance and the imperative to make the world a better place. In particular, he identified with the female struggle with oppression and saw feminine energy and power as critical to the world’s balance. In his 20s, on a dare, he explored sculpting and discovered both his ability to capture human emotion and energy and the power of art to amplify.
Self-taught, for more than 20 years Marco sculpted in clay and cast in bronze, primarily women who chose their own poses, their own expressions. In 2007 he attended the Burning Man Festival and was inspired to take his art and his message in a new direction, he just did not yet know how. In 2009 he returned, and it was then he realized how he could enlarge his sculptures to monumental proportions while maintaining their integrity, thus magnifying their impact.
Marco believes that the time we have to solve the problems that threaten our existence on this planet is running out, and that the key to finding real lasting solutions is bringing feminine energy into balance with male energy: a global shift, already underway.

Ellie is the eldest, multiracial, queer daughter of an Indonesian American immigrant from Manado, Sulawesi Utara and a badass Viking, Jewish buleh mom from Minnesota, occupied land of the Anishinabewaki, Mdewakanton, and Očhéthi Šakówiŋ peoples. She grew up in immigrant-shaped Brown and Black neighborhoods of Southern California and early on, saw the problems that would later lead her to her purpose. Though she spent much of her career doing social impact work, her political education and radicalism was a slow birth, and happened only through deep and intimate community building, organizing, and her own identity reckoning – and yes, communal effort.
In spite of, or perhaps due to surviving many things, she became an entrepreneur and is a proud owner and principal of the Black-Founded, WOC-owned consulting firm, The Justice Collective, where she serves as Head of Strategy and Culture to bring racial equity to the workplace so people can transform the world while they transform their hearts. It’s a journey.
In between a few credentials, some meaningful recognition, and failures of every kind, Ellie discovered she feels most effective when helping leaders and changemakers feel their best, trusting their talents and wisdom. She’s good at building people up and helping them see their truth more clearly.
Her favorite things are collective liberation, her fiance and rescue dog, shoulder pads, sambal, and putting a fried egg on everything.
Puerto Rican artist NiNo was introduced to the world of arts at an early age when his parents noticed how much he enjoyed drawing and painting. When he attended college at the University of Puerto Rico, he joined the National Student Exchange Program which transferred him to Indiana University where he majored in Graphic Design.
NiNo’s experience as an artist has since been very eclectic. It has brought him to designing sets and shows for stage, film, and commercials in Los Angeles. He was part of the design team for NBC’s TV show “American Dream Builders” and has been working as the Art Director/Prop Master for Ricky Martin since 2017.
NiNo’s favorite projects have been creations that bring communities together, notably the public art project, “Múcaro’s Rising”, a basketball court mural located in Puerto Rico. It was the first of its kind on the island sponsored by the 2K Foundation. The project also served as an outreach program to involve the community to paint and refurbish the court, an experience NiNo was proud to lead. Múcaro’s Rising was recognized with a CODAward as one of the 2021 Top 100 commissioned art installations in the world.
Other public art projects NiNo designed and created are “Got Framed”, a popular interactive art installation at Burning Man (2015 & 2016), recognizing him as the first Puerto Rican to bring art to Burning Man, and the wise woody owl named “MÚCARO” which received the 2017 Burning Man Honoraria Art Grant. He recently received his second Honoraria Art Grant to bring a new interactive art piece “ATABEY” to the 2022 event.
NiNo owes a lot of his big art fabrication and installation experience to his years working at one of the best U.S. art fabrication houses, Carlson Baker Arts. He has had the opportunity to collaborate with renowned artists such as Christian Moeller (“Cactus” at the Henry B. González Convention Center, San Antonio Texas) and Pae White (“Woven Walk” at the LAX, Los Angeles Tom Bradley International Airport).
In 2021 he joined forces with his talented friend Thomas Dambo, fabricating five of his world-renowned troll installations at the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens in Boothbay, Maine called in “Guardians Of The Seeds”.
What fulfills NiNo the most is creating spaces that provoke thought and conversation. He loves seeing people being stimulated, and better yet, inspired to create, thrive and dream BIG.
Rachel Hundley “retired” from a career as a corporate litigation attorney in New York City to move to California and open a fried chicken business. The goal was to put down roots in smaller city where she could be more involved in the community, and a year later Rachel found herself buying a food truck and running for the Sonoma City Council. She surprised everyone, including herself, when she won that election and became Sonoma’s first elected millennial.
Rachel served as the Mayor of Sonoma in 2017 when unprecedented wildfires swept across the North Bay. Her growing passion for local government inspired her to close her five-year-old fried chicken business, reinvent herself as a public law attorney specializing in municipalities and special districts, and run for a second term on the city council in 2018.
Rachel’s reelection campaign took an unexpected turn when she received an anonymous email stating she should reconsider her second run or else she would be “exposed.” The email included a link to a new website about her. Although this was not Rachel’s first run-in with a malicious website, this one added a new angle. Using photos of Rachel from Burning Man, the website stated she was too “immoral” and “unethical” to continue leading the city. Rachel’s response—a four-minute video posted to YouTube entitled “Sonoma Councilwoman Says No to Slut-Shaming”—went viral, and her story was reported across the country and around the world in national and international news media. Rachel won her reelection with the most votes in the history of that race. She currently serves as Vice Mayor.
Rachel is a native of the Deep South where she earned three undergraduate degrees from the University of Georgia and a law degree from the University of North Carolina. She currently services as General Counsel to four special districts in the Bay Area. Rachel also serves on a number of boards, including serving as chair of the Sonoma County Mayors & Council Members Legislative Committee. In her free time, Rachel paints birds and portraits of her two pets, Dr. Frasier Crane (kitten) and Sam Seaborn (dog). She is married to Sean Hamlin, who proposed during public comment at a City Council meeting in 2017.
