Podcasts & Documentaries
Visibility through Voice.
Across podcasts, documentaries, and digital storytelling, my work archives lived experience and expands who gets to be seen. Each appearance is an extension of my visibility practice—transforming conversation into documentation and lived truth into shared wisdom. Whether through interviews on belonging and equity, documentaries that explore cannabis and culture, or reflective dialogues on healing and leadership, these features trace the intersections of identity, vulnerability, and social change. Together, they form a public record of what it means to be visible, to heal aloud, and to make art of becoming.
