I am a skilled radio and podcast producer, communications strategist, videographer and writer based in Harlem, NY. I learned about the importance of effective storytelling from refugees and asylum seekers first in my home state of North Carolina, then Zimbabwe, the U.K., New Jersey, and California. For my work with people held in U.S. immigration detention, I received the Reebok Human Rights Award. I was then inspired to create digital storytelling projects through my consulting practice, Aquifer Media, for nonprofit organizations and philanthropic organizations that are building stronger communities. After attending the Transom Story Workshop, I have produced a range of audio stories, some of which have aired on NPR News, 99% Invisible, BBC World Service, and Georgia Public Broadcasting among others. I recently assisted Ten Percent Happier with launching their podcasts More Than A Feeling and Childproof. I am currently a producer with The New Yorker Radio Hour. I’m also a proud member of the Association of Independents in Radio and the Public Radio Exchange.
