Bringing The Voices Of Lived Experience To Life 

WHAT MATTERS MOST

For the last 15 years, I have had the joy of working with foundations, think tanks, and companies that want to learn from the people closest to the subject they are working to impact: people with lived experience. They see the unique benefit of hearing and integrating these voices into what they do. I design projects that bring these voices into the heart of their work, and outward-facing ways to share them with the wider world.

My specialty is using Photovoice and other forms of participatory communication. I invite and equip people to share what matters most to them in their own images, words, and expressions. 

Participants feel seen. Staff hear and can act on things no survey could tell them. And the public experiences a kind of truth, depth, and honesty that creates change, one story at a time.

I also curate a live storytelling project in the realm of sports, Baseball As Good Medicine, bringing the lived experiences of the love of the sport to life. 

ABOUT PHOTOVOICE
Photovoice is a qualitative research method in which participants create photographs and the words that go with them. It was developed by Caroline Wang and Mary Ann Burris through a Ford Foundation–funded program, and it remains one of the most powerful ways to see the world through someone else’s eyes.
