Communications Strategist and Podcast Producer: Audio, Video, Brand

Hello! I'm a Vancouver-based communications strategist and creative producer with five years of experience helping mission-driven organizations and independent creators tell stories that actually land. My work spans podcast production, communications strategy and copywriting, video and film, and visual identity design — often in combination. I'm comfortable working end-to-end: from concept and creative direction through to editing, publishing, and distribution. Recent work includes full-cycle podcast production for a national healthcare access show, communications strategy and brand voice development for an Indigenous entrepreneurship organization, documentary-style video production for funder and community audiences, and visual rebrands. I hold an M.A. in Communications from Simon Fraser University (2025), where my research focused on audio, affect, and sound as a medium for collective meaning-making. I've also co-authored a peer-reviewed publication on podcasting and presented at conferences including NYU. I work best with clients who care deeply about their subject matter and want a collaborator who brings both strategic thinking and strong craft. If that's you — reach out.
