Has worked 11 + years on unscripted television and documentary film, including an EMMY nominated YouTube series called F2 Finding Football. I bring a variety of useful skills to the table, such as budget forecasting and remediation, negotiation with executive level stakeholders, conflict resolution, process management and timely project completion. I have diversified my time working across several production companies, networks, creative agencies, and with independent filmmakers. I am a self-starter, motivator, and team player with a passion for project management, and I am confident in my ability to carry out multiple projects, simultaneously, from inception to completion. In my spare time :-) I am producing a documentary that highlights the legacy of the late Conductor, Dr. Nathan Carter, and his continued impact on generations of students and the global community, through music.
This website is a growing directory of people of color who work in audio around the world. You’ll find editors, hosts, writers, producers, sound designers, engineers, project managers, musicians, reporters, and content strategists with varied experience from within the industry and in related fields.
It’s both a place for employers to find POC candidates, and a place where POC can find each other for meetups, collaborations, advice and so on, which means that not everyone you’ll see on here is actively looking for a job.
To our POC family: we see you and we stand with you. Let’s continue to support each other.
If you’re an employer, we need to talk.

While recruiting diverse candidates is a great first step, it’s not going to be enough if we want the industry to look and sound meaningfully different in the future. Let us be clear: this isn’t about numbers alone. This is about getting the respect that people of color—and people of different faiths, abilities, ages, socioeconomic statuses, educational backgrounds, gender identities, and sexual orientation—deserve. So before you get started, here are the Terms of Service:
I will pay employees a living wage.
I will consider the ways in which my workspace might be hostile to people of color and find concrete ways to support their contributions and wellbeing.
I will continually reflect on how my networks, taste, curiosity, comfort and values are shaped by my race, class, gender, where I grew up, the media I consume, and the fact that we live in a white supremacist culture. This takes time. It will require vulnerability, and a commitment to ongoing learning.
I understand that this directory is not ZipRecruiter, and that expanding my hiring practices requires that I dedicate some time to engaging with potential candidates in a deeper way than simply scanning their years of industry experience.
